DON?T BUY A CAR (You can?t Push)

My Dad was the smartest man in town,
Always telling me I should slow down,
Most times I didn?t take his advice,
Find myself thinking otherwise,
Found trouble along the way,
Always living for today,
But my Daddy tried,
I can hear him say.

He?d say
Don?t drive drunk the laws real mean,
Smoking kills just look at me,
Penny saved is a penny earned,
Play with fire your gonna get burned,
One in the hand, beats two in the bush,
And don?t buy a car you can?t push,
Never drive a car you can?t push.

Now Dad?s been gone about a year or so,
His words came true couple nights ago,
Car out of gas stuck in the road,
Two cops showed up ask me to blow,
Now I?m sitting here in jail,
Nobody to go my bail,
But my Daddy tried,
I can hear him say.

(Repeat chorus)

Always do what you?ve always done,
You always get what your owed Son,
I stand here now to face my fear,
His words still ringing in my ears,
I still hear him say.

(Repeat chorus)
