Karaoké The Night I Called The Old Man Out Garth Brooks

The dining room fell silent

I can't believe what I just said

I just told my dad he's full of it and I watched his face turn red

Well and I should've said

I'm sorry

But I matched him shout for shout

I can still hear that screen door slammin' the night I called him out

And he said

Son it's gonna hurt me more than it hurts you

But somehow I couldn't help but have my doubts

'Cos I'd seen my older brothers crawl back in the house each time they called the old man out

Fist to fist and eye to eye

Standin' toe to toe

He would've let me walk away but I just would not let it go

Years of my frustration had let me to this night

Now he'll pay for all the times that he's been right

And he said

Son it's gonna hurt me more than it hurts you

But somehow I couldn't help but have my doubts

'Cos I'd seen my older brothers crawl back in the house each time they called the old man out

It was over in a minute and that's when I realized

The blood came from my mouth and nose

But the tears came from his eyes

And in memory of that fateful night

I know the greatest pain was his

And I just pray some day

I'm half the man he is

And he said

Son it's gonna hurt me more than it hurts you

But somehow I couldn't help but have my doubts

'Cos I'd seen my older brothers crawl back in the house each time they called the old man out

Just like my older brothers

I crawled back in the house

The night I called the old man out
