The Story Of My Old Man Lyrics
(Verse)
I don't know too much about,
Too much of my old man,
I know he walked right out the out door,
And we never saw him again,
Last I heard he was at the bar,
Doin' himself in,
I know I got that same disease,
I got stuck with that from him,
(Chorus)
This is the story of my old man,
Just like his father before him,
I'm tellin' you do anything you can,
So you don't end up just like them,
Like them,
Monday he woke up and hated life,
Drank until wednesday and left his wife,
Thursday thru Saturday lost everything,
Woke up on Sunday miserable again,
(Verse)
I remember baseball games,
And working on the car,
He told me that he loved me and,
That I would go far,
He showed me how to work hard,
And stick up for myself,
I wish he wasn't to hard,
To listen to himself,
(Chorus 1x)
Someday he'll wish that he made things right,
Long for his family and miss his wife,
Remember the days he had everything,
Now he's alone and miserable again.
I don't know too much about,
Too much of my old man,
I know he walked right out the out door,
And we never saw him again,
Last I heard he was at the bar,
Doin' himself in,
I know I got that same disease,
I got stuck with that from him,
This is the story of my old man,
Just like his father before him,
I'm tellin' you do anything you can,
So you don't end up just like them,
Like them,
Drank until wednesday and left his wife,
Thursday thru Saturday lost everything,
Woke up on Sunday miserable again,
I remember baseball games,
And working on the car,
He told me that he loved me and,
That I would go far,
He showed me how to work hard,
And stick up for myself,
I wish he wasn't to hard,
To listen to himself,
Long for his family and miss his wife,
Remember the days he had everything,
Now he's alone and miserable again.

gc rocks...i'm glad they write songs that are about things people can relate to, and it's not all just about lost love and whatnot.

the songs called just 'my old man'
This song is brilliant. I also have a father who picked up and walked out on my family so I can relate.It feels good to know that the can understand what I'm feeling and I vnt my anger towards him in their songs. GC Rocks!
The songs called "the story of my old man"
i heard its a good song but i wont bother trying to listen to it coz i dont like gothics
what do gothics have to do with anything?
What a fucking idiot up there LOL.
Anyway this is definetly one of the best songs on teh album its got the best beat though for sure.
yeah.. the gothic thing is a little off. but if you like a song, dont worry about the image of the band.
They aren't gothic and what does their looks and what they are have to do with their music anyways? Even they were or what not its all about the music. Its just sad your based off apperances. Oh well im glad i dont know you.
GC kicks ass I have this cd and it rocks hard..great song.
