Translation
Bilingual
He was named by my grandma
She got it from the bible
And he passed it onto me, like granddaddy's rifle
Raised me up like sweet corn
Created a disciple
Yeah, I fought it like hell
Hell he became a rival
Yeah, I tried to be different
Tried to go against the grain
Didn't make no difference
I just ended up the same
I've never known better, yeah
'Cause every bone's tethered
You wanna change my name
Gotta drain my blood
God damn
I am my father's son, yeah
Yeah, I left town just to
Get out of his shadow
And he'd send me a twenty
Just to get back on that saddle
I put up a good fight
But I didn't win the battle
I guess the tree don't grow
Very far from the apple, no
I've never known better, yeah
'Cause every bone's tethered
You wanna change my name
Gotta drain my blood
God damn, I am my father's son
I am my father's son
I wear his blue jean jacket
And his name like a badge of honor
I used to hate being called Junior
Now I don't mind any longer
I've never known better, yeah
'Cause every bone's tethered
You wanna change my name
Gotta drain my blood
'Cause everything I
Am is everything he was
God damn, I am my father's son
I am my father's son
I am my father's son
