Like Father, Like SonLonnie Brooks

L: Let me tell you about this boy of mine
when my son was only 9 years old
he would not write and save his soul
staying out late cuttin' the school
chasing girls and acting the rule
I tell you son you better try and write
if you've been staying out every night
he said :
R: daddy I'm just doing what you've done
L: and I admit every minute like father like son
when he finally touches me
the baddest kid that I ever see
cruising the street sneaking in the bar
got drunk one night and he wrecked my car
I tell you son : you better cool out soon
if you ever want to reach the age of 21
he said :
R: daddy I'm just doing what you've done
L: and I admit every minute like father like son
R: play you're guitar for me daddy
L: show me what you can do son
R: I tell you stop to try to raise a child
L: when you can't say : you like I did
R: grand ma told me you was wild
ever since you was a baby child
L: how can I tell him to learn and trade
when I was crazy at his age
R: daddy you can't talk him bad
cause everything I learned I learned from my dad
daddy I'm just doin' what you've done
L: like father like son
now my boy is almost grown
out of the house and he's on his own
playing the blues like his old man
and he's damn good as I am
it's seems like the boy gonna take the fire
I keep believe he's a son of mine
R: daddy I'm just doin' what you've done
L: and I admit every minute like father like son
R: come on dad
L: are you playing like I told ya, son
R: play me one more
what can you say about that
can you top that
give me the soul, son
come on dad show me one more
