[00:09.63]There's a story that my daddy tells religiously
[00:14.52]Like clockwork every time he sees an opening
[00:18.87]In a conversation about the way things used to be
[00:25.20]Well I'd just roll my eyes and make a bee-line for the door
[00:34.29]But I'd always wind up starry-eyed, cross-legged on the floor
[00:38.85]Hanging on to every word
[00:43.05]Man, the things I heard
[00:49.08]It was harder times and longer days
[00:51.48]Five miles to school, uphill both ways
[00:53.94]We were cane switch raised, and dirt floor poor
[00:56.61]'Course that was back before the war
[00:58.71]Yeah, your uncle and I made quite a pair
[01:01.26]Flying F-15's through hostile air
[01:04.02]He went down but they missed me by a hair
[01:08.49]He'd always stop right there and say...
[01:11.13]That's something to be proud of
[01:13.65]That's a life you can hang your hat on
[01:16.11]That's a chin held high as the tears fall down
[01:18.78]A gut sucked in, a chest stuck out
[01:21.00]Like a small town flag a-flyin'
[01:23.67]Or a newborn baby cryin'
[01:25.11]In the arms of the woman that you love
[01:29.61]That's something to be proud of
[01:31.71]So I'm graduatin' college, that was mama's dream
[01:45.63]But I was on my way to anywhere else when I turned 18
[01:50.10]Cuz when you gotta fast car you think you've got everything
[02:00.78]I learned quick those GTO's don't run on faith
[02:05.82]I ended up broken down in some town north of L.A.
[02:10.29]Working maximum hours for minimum wage
[02:16.14]Well, I fell in love, next thing I know
[02:22.77]The babies came, the car got slow
[02:25.32]I sure do miss that old hot rod
[02:27.48]But you sure save gas in them foreign jobs
[02:29.94]Dad, I wonder if I ever let you down
[02:32.67]If you're ashamed how I turned out
[02:34.92]Well, he lowered his voice, then he raised his brow
[02:39.45]Said, lemme tell ya right now
[02:42.21]That's something to be proud of
[02:44.76]That's a life you can hang your hat on
[02:47.16]You don't need to make a million
[02:49.32]Just be thankful to be workin'
[02:52.17]If you're doing what you're able
[02:54.51]And putting food there on the table
[02:57.06]And providing for the family that you love
[03:00.69]That's something to be proud of
[03:02.04]And if all you ever really do is the best you can
[03:10.47]Well, you did it man
[03:16.68]That's something to be proud of
[03:19.20]That's a life you can hang your hat on
[03:21.78]That's a chin held high as the tears fall down
[03:24.33]A gut sucked in, a chest stuck out
[03:26.64]Like a small town flag a-flyin'
[03:29.31]Or a newborn baby cryin'
[03:30.69]In the arms of the woman that you love
[03:35.22]That's something to be proud of
[03:36.12]That's something to be proud of
[03:37.23]Yeah, that's something to be proud of
[03:42.66]That's something to be proud of
[03:44.70]Now that's something to be proud of
