Man of the House

She'd pretend to have it all together But she ain't ever been good at lying And I knew right when, I came home from school And caught her in the corner crying Yeah, she tries like hell to stop him Volunteered her misery So I could be, a normal kid With a dad that didn't leave So I got down on one knee to wipe her tears away And I knew it was up to me to take his place And be the one that she could lean on When she feels like she's a mess To be the one that says she's beautiful When she tries on that new dress When times are tough, build her up And fill the shoes in all around 'Cause when you love someone enough You just learn how To be the man of the house Sometimes you gotta step up And get a job at just 15 Be on the farm, before the sun And back after that bell rings While all my friend were dressing up and going out I was grown enough, making sure we didn't go without Being the one that she could lean on When she feels like she's a mess Being the one that says she's beautiful When she tries on that new dress When times are tough, build her up And fill the shoes in all around 'Cause when you love someone enough You just learn how To be the man of the house, yeah Ooh I'd do it all again and play the part 'Cause when you love some someone enough It ain't that hard To be the one that she could lean on When she feels like she's a mess To be the one that says she's beautiful When she tries on that new dress When times are tough, build her up And fill the shoes in all around 'Cause when you love someone enough You just learn how Yeah Yeah, when you love someone enough you just learn how To be the man of the house Just be the man of the house Be the man of the house
