For As Long As I Can Remember

[Verse 1]
For as long as I can remember
The sun wasn't up before Dad
He's always taken coffee black
And Monday mornin' strong
For as long as I can remember
There's been abbot up on the fridge
Kitchen table's where his Bible sits
Where they both belong

[Chorus]
Some things will always be a certain way
And just like him, I wanna be the kind of man the wind can't change
I'll always be my father's son 'til I wake up on the other side of forever
It's all I ever wanted to be
For as long as I can remember
Mmm

[Verse 2]
For as long as I can remember
It's been me and my brother
You got one, you got the other
And that was that
And just like any other brothers
We had our fair share of fights
But even when we don't see eye-to-eye
Got each other's back

[Chorus]
Some things will always be a certain way
And just like him, I wanna be the kind of man the wind can't change
I'll be my father's son, and when he needs me
I'll be my brother's keeper
'Cause he's been that for me
For as long as I can remember

[Bridge]
Sometimes I cuss like him
And I catch myself standin' like him
When I get mad, I get quiet like him
Like my brother, my dad, and his dad
Before him

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Some things will always be a certain way
And just like them, I wanna be the kind of man the wind can't change
From now till kingdom come, when we catch up on the other side of forever
That's how it's always gonna be
That's how I'm always gonna be
For as long as I can remember

[Outro]
Ooh ooh
For as long as I can remember
Ooh ooh
