[00:09.99]There's a story that my daddy tells religiously
[00:14.91]Like clockwork everytime he see's an opening
[00:19.29]In a conversation 'bout the way things use to be
[00:30.09]I just roll my eyes and make a B-line for the door
[00:34.65]I'd always end up starry eyes and cross legged on the floor
[00:39.06]Hangin onto every word, man the things I heard
[00:49.41]It was harder times and longer days
[00:51.96]Five miles to school uphill both ways
[00:54.39]We were cane switched raised and dirt floor poor
[00:57.06]Course that was back before the war
[00:59.19]Yeah your uncle and I made quit a pair
[01:01.74]Flyin F-15's through hostile air
[01:04.47]He went down but they missed me by a hair
[01:08.97]He'd always stop right there and say
[01:11.55]That's something to be proud of
[01:14.07]That's a life you can hang your hat on
[01:16.53]As your chins held high as the tears fall down
[01:19.32]Gut sucked in, chest stuck out
[01:21.48]Like a small town flag a flyin'
[01:23.88]Or a new born baby cryin'
[01:26.34]In the arms of the woman that you love
[01:30.00]That's something to be proud of
[01:41.07]Son graduatin' college, that was mommas dream
[01:45.99]And I was on my way to anywhere else when I turned eighteen
[01:50.49]That's when I got a fast car and think you got everything
[02:01.08]I learned real quick those GTO's don't run on faith
[02:05.70]I ended up broke down in some town north of L.A
[02:10.59]Working maximum hours for minimum wage
[02:20.64]I fell in love next thing I know
[02:23.16]Babies came and the car got sold
[02:25.71]Sure do miss that old hot rod
[02:27.87]But you sure save gas in them foreign jobs
[02:30.39]Dad I wonder if I ever let you down
[02:33.12]If you're ashamed how I turned out
[02:35.37]Well he lowered his voice, then he raised his brow
[02:39.93]Said, "Let me tell you right now"
[02:42.51]That's something to be proud of
[02:45.18]That's a life you can hang your hat on
[02:47.58]No need to make a million just be thankful to be workin'
[02:52.50]If you're doin' what you're able
[02:55.05]Puttin' food there on the table
[02:57.48]And providing for the family that you love
[03:01.08]That's something to be proud of
[03:07.05]And before you ever really do is the best you can
[03:14.52]Well you did it man
[03:17.04]That's something to be proud of
[03:19.68]That's a life you can hang your hat on
[03:22.17]As your chin held high as the tears fall down
[03:24.90]Gut sucked in, chest stuck out
[03:27.09]Like a small town flag a flyin'
[03:29.52]Or a new born baby cryin'
[03:31.92]In the arms of the woman that you love
[03:35.55]That's something to be proud of
[03:38.16]That's something to be proud of
[03:40.65]That's something to be proud of
[03:43.11]That's something to be proud of
[03:45.24]Now it's something to be proud of
