Daddy Raised

Daddy was a four-speed, stick-shift, rubber-burning

454 blowing paint off doors

Worked hard for his dollar, redneck, blue collar

Let his mouth cash checks that his ass can't afford

I've only heard the stories from my brothers before me

Cut from a cloth where the odds ain't for me

Got him in my blood, ain't too hard to see

The wind wasn't blowing when the apple left the tree

I ain't the only hell my daddy raised (Daddy raised)

Mama keeps praying my crazy stays locked in a cage (In a cage)

'Cause you know there's a little bit of devil down in my DNA (My DNA)

I ain't the only hell my daddy raised

Daddy raised

Now it all makes sense where the wild came from

Who put the bullets in this son of a gun

Sister, she's a saint, Mama, she's an angel

Yeah, I might be Cain, but he sure ain't no Abel

I ain't the only hell my daddy raised (Daddy raised)

Mama keeps praying my crazy stays locked in a cage (In a cage)

'Cause you know there's a little bit of devil down in my DNA (My DNA)

I ain't the only hell my daddy raised

Daddy raised

Daddy raised a glass, Daddy raised a fist

Wouldn't walk no line, but he ran like the wind

He raised the bar high for the hell-raising ones

You know what they say, like father, like son

I ain't the only hell my daddy raised (Daddy raised)

Mama keeps praying my crazy stays locked in a cage (In a cage)

You know there's a little bit of devil down in my DNA (My DNA)

'Cause I ain't the only hell my daddy raised

My daddy raised

My daddy raised
