My Father's Son

Lyrics

I'm an old man, my time has come
 Never had much years for anyone
 About to close the door, get the music on
 Been that way since I was young
 I turn the radio up and sing along
 Burning whirlwind and I never wore some
 Left my town and away in the world
 Harvard banned that music girl
 Do you remember?
 Remember Steve?
 Do you remember?
 Yes, I do, I will
 Got Radcliff wife who had a son
 And I kept to myself, kept the radio on
 My boy left when he could, took off on his own
 Never looked back, he's his father's son
 50 years later my boy's back home
 We sit together with the radio on
 I can hardly hear, mostly gone
 Music's in my head, I sing along
 Do you remember?
 Remember Steve?
 Remember?
 Yes, I do, I will
 He holds my hand, stays by the bed
 Same things never have been said
 I'm my father's son, he is mine
 Hope it's not too late for me and him this time
 This time.
 Do you remember?
 Remember Steve?
 Remember?
 Yes, I do, I will
 Remember Steve?
 Remember?
 Yes, I do, I will
