A GUY THING

We didn't always see things eye to eye
We didn't always take the time to say
It seems we lost some moments to the daily grind
there's plenty more along the way
You and me let's start today

The struggles of a father and a son
is nothing close to any other one
It's just a dance we had to do
Testosterone, in me and you

Cause it's a guy thing, never show the fear
Never cry a tear, and always make it harder than it has to be
It's a guy thing, keeping it all inside
until your all alone, there's a voice upon the phone
reminding you there's nowhere left to hide

It isn't ever wrong for a father and a son
To say what's hidden deep inside
A loving heart in hand, a man is just a man
Get the poles I want to feel a bite
Let's go fishing on the lakeside

How bout you and me spend a little time
at the best damn fishing hole that we can find
One more cast of thousands, let our reels sing
That means we got big ones on the line

Cause it's a guy thing, baiting up the hook
to entice more than a look
catch ourselves a fish for supper time
It's a guy thing, keeping it all inside
until you're all alone
and there's a voice upon the phone
Hey Dad let's go fishing on the lakeside
To call you Dad, I'm proud
I'll say it right out loud
Let's go fishing on the lakeside
I love you Dad
