Testo: Pat Green. Dancehall Dreamer. Family Man.

(Pat Green)

I can remember my grandpa when I was five years old
He'd pull me up on his knee
And I remember every story that he ever told
He and my grandma well they would always be
Two southern lovers just kissing on each other so tenderly

Chorus
And he'd say, all I ever wanted to be was your family man
To work real hard girl and give you everything I can
I just want to be your family man
Tell the children that I'll always lend a helping hand
I just want to be your family man
Just want to be your family man

Mom and Dad worked real hard to raise us kids
They were always there for me
And it didn't matter what it was I did
They've seen the hard times, the sickness and the hell
It didn't really take too long
Before they found that money it don't mean wealth

Chorus

Last night I had a dream from heaven up above
He taught me how to win her heart and win her love
He said it I was going to love you then listen to what he said and do it His way

Chorus

He said you just got to be her family man
Work real hard boy, but live your life according to my plan
You just got to be her family man
Tell the children, tell them exactly who I am
You just got to be her family man
Just got to be her family man
