Good Man Songtext

von Nick Howard

My mother said to me
When I was young
She said then nothing
But she'd never hold me down
She tough me everything
And gave me a plan
So I'll do my best for her
Whenever I can

She said when you're older
And a little bit wiser
You can make a difference
You can make a change
If you never stop fighting
And you never quit trying
Then you'll get rise up
You can be a flame
You can be a good man
You can be a good man
You can be a good man

Yeah

My daddy left us
When we were young
He showed me nothing
About how to be a man
My mama showed me
How to write a song

She said it's all possible
If your heart is strong

She said when you're older
And a little bit wiser
You can make a difference
You can make a change
If you never stop fighting
And you never quit trying
Then you'll get rise up

You can be a flame
You can be a good man
You can be a good man

Sometimes when the wrong is the longest hard
But you have a place to call your home

I'll be right here my love
You will never be alone
You can always call my name
I will watch you here from heaven

My mother's gone now
Her soul remains
I still think about her

About everything she said
So I'll show my daughter
Now I'm a man
That she can be anything
‘Cause daddy said she can

You see now that I'm older
And a little bit wiser
I can make a difference
Yeah I can make a change
If I never stop fighting
And I never quit trying
Then I'll get rise up
Yeah I can be a flame
Ooh I can be a good man
Yeah I can be a good man
Ooh I can be a good man
Yeah I can be a good man
I can be a good man
Yeah
Yeah
Ooh
