Eric has been enjoying the two Andy Gullahorn CD's he recieved for Christmas. He particularly wanted to share this song with his fellow daddy buds.
More than a Man
I took my grandad's 22
When I was in the 2nd grade
I shot a deer right in the heart
And rubbed his blood upon my face
The summer when I turned sixteen
I got up each day before the dawn
I was building barns and bailing hay
Worked harder than the day was long
Now I'm 30 and I have three kids
I watch Dora the Explorer in the morning
I feel a sad truth sinking in
Maybe I was more of a man back then
It used to be my daily fare
Was chicken fried steak and barbecue
I had Dr. Pepper every meal
And ice cream when the day was through
Now I'm watching my cholesterol
My metabolism is obviously slowing
Tonight it's salad once again
Surely I was more of a man back then
I used to watch Jean-Claude Van Damme
Killing guys on the silver screen
Now every night with the kids in bed
We watch Gilmore Girls on DVD
Surely I was more. . .
So I suck in my protruding gut
On our monthly dinner night
You're saying something about the kids
As I watch these young men pass me by
I remember I was just like them
I was lonely but I called it independence
And if lonesome is what manly is
Baby I was more of a man back then

If you've read his liner notes, you will know that by posting his copyrighted lyrics, his kids will go hungry for a week and he wont be able to make the lease payment on his Kia leaving the whole family no way to get the needed supplies for the hurricane that will hit his house caused by the wind that was created from everyone flocking to your website to download the illegal copy of lyrics...
Laura does not appreciate the Gilmore reference. (but I did).
