lyrics

Roll your windows down, turn the music up.
Let your hair grow out, you've made your bed already -
You're a good man, son, you're a good man, son.

Count your blessings, quick. You can't always be happy..
The people at the start and the end were my favourites -
That's good enough for me.. That's good enough for me.

I'm a little scared.
Of what will happen now.
Look into my eyes, and all will be alright..
.. Just breathe with me.

I'd like to pay my respects, one father to another.
Thanks for all your love, and doing what I couldn't -
He's a good man, Jack. He's a good man, Jack.

I'm a little scared
Of what will happen now.
Look into my eyes, all will be alright..
.. Just breathe with me.

I left you with my words, and my blood.
Cherish that you knocked on my door; You're my boy -
That's good enough for me, That's good enough for me
