Lyrics

[00:05.13] In the fights they had he'd cover up his ears
[00:08.93] Thought big boys don't cry, fought back all the tears
[00:13.43] Mama'd use her make up, to hide the bruises on his face
[00:20.51] In the morning they'd pretend that there'd never ever been a trace
[00:28.30] His old man woke him up to help him find the car
[00:32.43] Take the bus uptown outside some rundown bar
[00:37.23] And swore that he was quittin
[00:39.57] And then he'd start to cry
[00:43.93] And though the boy knew the truth
[00:48.62] Sometimes he'd still believe that lie
[00:50.99]
[00:51.24] When the sins of the father are the sins of the son
[00:55.75] All you do is crawl when you wanna run
[00:59.59] And God gave boys their mamas cause
[01:01.71] They always see their promise
[01:03.17] And they help them understand
[01:09.21] How to walk like a man
[01:17.27] Walk like a man
[01:23.85]
[01:26.64] They moved a lot of places, they never settled down
[01:30.58] It got pretty old being the new kid in town
[01:34.56] He always told his friends, my daddy's sick today
[01:41.50] Said he'd be rich if he had a nickel every time he heard his mama say
[01:49.93] The sins of the father are the sins of the son
[01:53.85] Crawl before you walk, boy
[01:57.34] Walk before you run
[01:57.91] Come on, stand up straight, I'm proud of you
[02:01.16] Take my hand
[02:03.91] I know you can
[02:07.82] Walk like a man
[02:15.32] Walk like a man
[02:24.78] Your daddy's demons are callin' your name
[02:31.10] Don't you listen to them cause they've got no claim
[02:38.29] Temptations may come, that ain't no sin
[02:44.94] You get stronger every time that you don't give in
[02:50.32]
[02:51.89] The sins of the father are the sins of the son
[02:55.72] You can't undo what has been done
[02:59.52] You'll have to retrace his footsteps
[03:02.82] Through the sand
[03:07.16] And pray you find the love of a girl
[03:11.18] And take her by the hand
[03:14.98] And walk on
[03:19.86] Walk like a man
