Lyrics:

He'd get home about 5:30
Fix a drink and sit down in his chai,r
Pick a fight with mama and
Complain about us kids gettin' in his hair

At night, he'd sit alone and smoke
I'd see his frown behind a lighter's flame
That same frowns in my mirror
I've got my daddy's blood inside my veins.

Fish swim, birds fly
Daddys yell, mamas cry
Old men sit and think
I drink

You got your chicken TV dinner
6 minutes on defrost, 3 on high
A beer to wash it down with
Then another little whiskey on the side

Its not so bad alone here
I don't bother me that every nights the same
I don't need another lover
Hangin around tryin' to make me change

Fish swim, birds fly
Daddys yell, mamas cry
Old men sit and think
I drink

I know what I am
But I don't,
I don't give a damn

Fish swim, birds fly
Daddys yell, mamas cry
Old men sit and think
I drink
