Daddy Raised Songtext
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)
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
'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
