Half Step Down
Intro
Up in the Midwest in cold Minnesota
Eighteen years from here if you go by the roads
Lived a man from Columbus, Ohio
Hes been my father since a long time ago, he said
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you son of mine
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you till the day I die
And I remember days and days and days spent in Harmony
Christmas day spent in white Oak Park
All those brown bags of a dollars worth of candy
I saw from Rapps seat than Rapp ever saw, he said
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you son of mine
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you till the day I die
I havent seen you much since I was twelve years old
I dont suppose Ill see you much on the rest of the road
And you should know that I miss you often
I miss your lap as much as you miss your mothers, and
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you son of mine
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you till the day I die
I wonder if you picture me as Sygnes Riders To The Sea
Sometimes you wonder if I come out alive
Well, up jumped dingo he was grinning like whatever
I may stray far but Ill be back by five, he said
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you son of mine
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you son of mine
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you son of mine
Ill stay behind you, Ill stay behind you
Ill stay behind you till the day I die
