Measure Of A Man Lyrics - Jack Ingram

I was fifteen left home young 

tore up the tracks and then some 

me and my dad didnt see eye to eye 

I never took to him 

he never took the time 

bullet proof 

more than tough 

smarter than he ever was 

well I burned those wheels down the highway 

and I learned what I learned the hard way 

do the best you can do 

love many trust few 

work hard for the money in your hands 

thats the measure of a man 

yeah the measure of a man

Anger burns, love cools it down 

Pretty young woman turned my head around 

The world through her eyes looked so different 

She lives on faith, she looks for forgiveness 

Fool proof, it ain't easy 

I need her, she needs me 

She stole my heart on this highway 

She taught me to love through the hard days 

Yeah she's cool when I'm not, she's as steady as a rock 

She's as solid as the ring on my hand 

That's the measure of a man 

Yeah the measure of a man 

Last night she handed me a son of my own 

It killed me to do it, but I picked up the phone

Hey dad I burned ten years down this highway 

And I learned what I learned the hard way 

Truth is I need you, we'll cry if we need to 

And I'll swallow my pride if you can 

That's the measure of a man 

Oh yeah, the measure of a man
