Lyrics
THAT WAS THAT
By: AJ Bigler
There’s a line scratched in the doorway at 6’2”
Several more going down to 4’ 3”
they tell the story a young boy grown into a man, his daddy taught him the most important thing he can
watched my dad love the mother of his children; tender kisses, treated with respect.
with his deeds my daddy taught me, how to treat a lady. She has the right to expect that from me
(chorus)
That was that, that’s how you act, nothing left to say, it was just that way, that was that
(verse)
daddy held momas hand as she bore my sister, I was there and words could never say, what I learned about my moma , how strong she had to be, to raise a healthy family
(interlude)
Chorus
There’s a line scratched in my doorway at 4 foot 2
Slowly going up to 6 foot 3
doing my best to teach, what daddy taught to me
