Family Man

Lyrics

Woah Jocko, don't expect me
 To come out drinking, messin' around
 Spending my time
 With a bunch of crazy people
 Yes, I been there before
 I don't need to go back no more
 I'm just a family man
 Like it or not
 I am a family man
 I'm a-holding onto what I've got
 I'm a family man
 Right by damn
 Finally, find out what I am
 Is a family man
 And don't expect me
 To hit the road
 At a moment's notice
 Without my suitcase
 With some crazy bunch of strangers
 In some unknown car
 I'm just not willing to go that far
 The life I used to lead was a little too frantic
 I guess I just got eyes to grow old and grey
 And if what I have in mind isn't super romantic
 I guess I always saw myself this way
 I'm just a family man
 Like it or not
 Said I'm a family man
 Holding onto what I've got
 I'm a family man
 Right by damn
 I, finally, find out what I am
 Is a family man
 Sears and Roebuck
 Howard Johnson
 Colonel Sanders
 Station wagon
 Briggs and Stratton
 Second mortgage
 If I can ever lose my blues
 Walk on over and turn on the TV
 What I'd like to do is lie down on the sofa
 Later on
 I might walk my dog, baby
 Bo Diddley's a family man
