- ; TITLE: The Night I Called The Old Man Out
- ; CD : The Collection - Garth Brooks
- ; ------
- 1019 The dining room fell silent
- 1178 I can't believe what I just said
- 1401 I just told my dad he's full of it
- 1636 And I watched his face turn red
- 1839 Well then I should have said I'm sorry
- 2066 But I matched him shout for shout
- 2277 And I can still hear that screen door slammin'
- 2513 The night I called him out
- 2743
- 2799 And he said
- 2860 Son, it's gonna hurt me
- 3080 more than it hurts you
- 3256 But somehow I couldn't help
- 3432 but have my doubts
- 3698 Cause I'd seen my older brothers
- 3945 crawl back in the house
- 4144 each time they called the old man out
- 4561
- 4853 Fist to fist
- 4914 and eye to eye
- 5060 Standin' toe to toe
- 5271 He would've let me walk away
- 5451 but I just could not let it go
- 5693 Years of my frustration
- 5894 had led me to this night
- 6085 Now he'll pay for all the times
- 6274 that he's been right
- 6495
- 6516 He said
- 6570 Son, it's gonna hurt me
- 6787 more than it hurts you
- 6969 But somehow I couldn't help
- 7139 but have my doubts
- 7404 Cause I'd seen my older brothers
- 7641 crawl back in the house
- 7844 each time they called the old man out
- 8210
- 8934 It was over in a minute
- 9152 And that's when I realized
- 9390 The blood came from my mouth and nose
- 9584 but the tears came from his eyes
- 9814 And in memory of that fateful night
- 10014 I know the greatest pain was his
- 10191 and I just pray some day
- 10342 I'm half the man he is
- 10612
- 10621 And he said
- 10701 Son, it's gonna hurt me
- 10912 more than it hurts you
- 11094 But somehow I couldn't help
- 11266 but have my doubts
- 11526 Cause I'd seen my older brothers
- 11768 crawl back in the house
- 11969 each time they called the old man out
- 12288
- 12400 Just like my older brothers
- 12629 I crawled back in the house
- 12840 the night I called the old man out
