How You Make A Man

Preacher said on the sixth day God made Adam outta dust
Teacher said that the Big Bang is where we came from
Momma said it's a miracle we're all born straight outta love
But daddy said, let me tell you son

It's the good days, bad days, goodbye heartbreaks
Tail lights fading 'cause you didn't say enough
The loss and the tears and the lies and the beers
The words you find, the ones you walk away from
You run, you crawl, you rise, you fall
You hit your knees till you learn to stand
Yeah, that's how you make a man
(Make a man, make a man)

Twenty-two thought I knew evеrything, so I put everything on a
Pawn shop, shiny thing, diamond ring I would've donе anything
I promise that girl the whole wide world right before she left
She left a boy broken, yeah remembering what my daddy said

It's the good days, bad days, goodbye heartbreaks
Tail lights fading 'cause you didn't say enough
The loss and the tears and the lies and the beers
The words you find, the ones you walk away from
You run, you crawl, you rise, you fall
You hit your knees till you learn to stand
Yeah, that's how you make a man

Yeah, I had to live to learn and crash and burn
For me to turn into a man worth loving you

It's the good days, bad days, goodbye heartbreaks
Tail lights fading 'cause you didn't say enough
The loss and the tears and the lies and the beers
The words you find, the ones you walk away from
You run, you crawl, you rise, you fall
You hit your knees till you learn to stand
Yeah, that's how you make a man
Yeah, that's how you make a man
Yeah, that's how you make a man
