(It's Hard To Live Up To) The Rock

Lyrics

He was the captain of the team in '42
 A favorite of the fans and the ladies too
 I still love those stories about The Rock
 He fought for his country in Normandy
 And drove the Germans back to Germany
 Captains right hand man was The Rock
 And to me he look tall as a tree
 At times I though he'd never notice me
 Standing in the shadow of The Rock
 I try to make him proud of me
 But my mistakes was all he'd see
 It always seems so hard to please The Rock
 And he'll never know how hard I try
 To be the man I thought that I shouldn't be in his eyes
 And I gave my all to be strong and stand tall, to be The Rock
 Oh, Lord, it's hard to live up to The Rock
 He came to visited me the other day
 I couldn't believe how much he'd aged
 But in my eyes he'll always be The Rock
 He said, "Son, ain't it funny how the years roll by?"
 As he turned his head, I saw him rub his eyes
 I never had felt closer to The Rock
 He said, "Son, you made my life complete"
 The only man I try to be
 I never thought I'd hear from The Rock
 And I was almost overcome when he
 Said, "It's an honor to call you a son"
 And I'm proud to say, "You're a chip off the old block"
 And you'll never know how hard I try
 To be the man I thought that I shouldn't be in your eyes
 And I gave my all to be strong and stand tall and be your rock
 Oh, Lord, it's hard to live up to The Rock
 Oh, Lord, it's hard to live up to The Rock
