Billy Currington - Walk A Little Straighter Lyrics

I remember lookin' up to look up to him
And I remember most the time he wasn't there
I'd be waiting at the door when he got home at night
He'd pass me by to go to pass out in his chair
And I'd say

Chorus:
Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're swaying side to side
You're footsteps make me dizzy
And no matter how I try
I keep trippin' and stumblin'
If you'd look down here you'd see
Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're leading me

He stumbled in the gym on graduation day
And I couldn't help but feel so ashamed
And I wasn't surprised a bit when he didn't stay
He stumbled out before they called my name
And I thought

Chorus:
Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're swaying side to side
It's not just me who's watching
You've caught everybody's eye
And you're trippin' and stumblin'
and even though I've turned 18
Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're still leading me

The old mans still like he always was
But I love him anyway
If I've learned one thing from him
Its my kids will never have to say

Repeat First Chorus

Yeah, walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're leading me
