Brennan - Sons and Fathers Lyrics

In the shadow of those Tennessee hills
Where the river runs deep and the air is still
I had love that tore me apart
This Tennessee air got me thinking hard
Oh the mountains Ive climbed
In the rivers I've crossed
It alters the dark when that girl is lost
Daddy's words cut deeper than a knife
Always chasing dreams trying to please his life
But I never quite measured up to his plan
Daddy said son you ain't enough
So I drowned my sorrows in the drugs
But then God came down from heaven above
And you sip all your problems away like it's nothing
Oh girl that ain't nothing new
And all of this time I've wasted on you
And your ex-friend your best friend
Telling me about exes you textin
Comparing me to your new boyfriend
And you still think of him less than
I hope you find someone better than him
Daddy's words cut deeper than a knife
Always chasing dreams trying to please his life
But I never quite measured up to his plan
Daddy said son you ain't enough
So I drowned my sorrows in the drugs
But then God came down from heaven above
In the shadow of those Tennessee hills
Where the river runs deep in the air still
Daddy's words cut deeper than a knife
Always chasing dreams trying to please his life
But I never quite measured up to his plan
Daddy said son you ain't enough
So I drowned my sorrows in the drugs
