Best Ones Do

[Verse 1]
He showed up right on time
Yeah, a little early
Made sure to open up my door
Even polished up his Ford
Yeah, he planned the whole night
From dinner to J's
And he just dropped me off at home
So I had to call you on the phone

[Chorus]
Thanks for showing me
What a real man's supposed to be
Living out the right and not the wrong
Saw it all since I was young
I know a couple times, I thought I saw forever in a guy
But there was always something that you didn't like
You know I hate it when you're right
And you were, always are
There ain't a word I didn't take to heart
I guess what you showed me, dad, was really true

[Verse 2]
I can't wait for you to meet him
To see what I'm talking about
He drinks his bourbon on the rocks
A Bulldog's fan when the season kicks off
And he really treats me good
Asks about you all the time
I see a light in you, in him
This one could be it

[Chorus]
Thanks for showing me
What a real man's supposed to be
Living out the right and not the wrong
Saw it all since I was young
I know a couple times, I thought I saw forever in a guy
But there was always something that you didn't like
You know I hate it when you're right
And you were, always are
There ain't a word I didn't take to heart
I guess what you showed me, dad, was really true
The best ones do

[Post-Chorus]
The best ones do

[Chorus]
So thanks for showing me
What a real man's supposed to be
Living out the right and not the wrong
I saw it all since I was young
I know a couple times, I thought I saw forever in a guy
But there was always something that you didn't like
You know I hate it when you're right
And you were, always are
There ain't a word I didn't take to heart
I guess what you showed me, dad, was really true

[Outro]
Everything I learned, I learned from you
The best ones do
