There's a story that my daddy tells religiously Like clockwork everytime he see's an opening In a conversation 'Bout the way things use to be I just roll my eyes and make a B-line for the door I'd always end up starry-eyed and cross-legged on the floor Hangin' onto every word Man, the things I heard "It was harder times and longer days Five miles to school uphill both ways We were cane-switched raised and dirt-floor poor Course that was back before the war Yea your uncle and I made quite a pair Flyin F-15's through hostile air He went down but they missed me by a hair" He'd always stop right there and say: Chorus: "That's something to be proud of That's a life you can hang your hat on That's a chins held high as the tears fall down Gut sucked in, chest stuck out Like a small town flag a-flyin Or a newborn baby cryin In the arms of the woman that you love That's something to be proud of" Son graduatin' college, that was Momma's dream But I was on my way to anywhere else when I turned eighteen That's when you got a fast car, and think you got everything I learned real quick those GTO's don't run on faith I ended up broken down in some town north of L.A. Working maximum hours, for minimum wage I fell in love next thing I know Babies came and the car got sold Sure do miss that old Hot Rod But you sure save gas in them foreign jobs Dad I wonder if I ever let you down If you're ashamed how I turned ou, Well he lowered his voice, then he raised his brow Said, "Let me tell you right now That's something to be proud of That's a life you can hang your hat on You don't need to make a million, just be thankful to be workin' If you're doin' what you're able Puttin' food there on the table And providing for the family that you love That's something to be proud of" And if all you ever really do is the best you can Well you did it man Chorus That's something to be proud of That's something to be proud of That's something to be proud of Now that's something to be proud of
