allen frizzell - man of his word lyrics
[verse 1]
my dad was from a different place in town we live today
he believed everyone should be up before the break of day
that a man should earn his living by the sweat of his brow
and a marriage was a lifetime vow
round town he never had to sign on no dotted line
’cause a handshake from him would do just fine
it’s hard to find that kind of man in this day’s world
he was a man of his word
[chorus]
he’d say
you’ve got to give a man a full+days work for his pay
don’t stop and listen to what everybody’s got to say
but take the time to help your fеllow man
know what you believe and takе a stand
always live your life for the good lord
and be a man of his word
[instrumental break]
[verse 2]
i thank my dad for teaching me all the things he did
taking me to church on sunday when i was a kid
where i found jesus between the fire and the brimstone
i heard made me a man of his word
[chorus]
he’d say
you’ve got to give a man a full+days work for his pay
don’t stop and listen to what everybody’s got to say
but take the time to help your fellow man
know what you believe and take a stand
always live your life for the good lord
and be a man of his word
[outro]
always live your life for the good lord
and be a man of his word
