Jason Meadows – 18 Video Tapes lyrics

One

day little Billy said momma ?where, s?my dad Fightin??

back? the tears she said I ?knew one day you d?ask She?

walked him down the hallway to, a closet with a safe Said

I ?think you ll?find the answer right here in, these 18 video tapes See?

the doctors told him he d?be gone before you were born And

it broke his heart to know he d?never hold you in his arms Determined

not to let you grow up learnin from mistakes He

put everything he thought you d?need to know on, 18 video tapes Like


here s?the way you hold a bat Be,

sure to keep that shoulder back And

when you cast that rod and reel Well,

use your wrist its in the field Or,

when you learn to ride your bike I

ll?tell you now that you won t?like those training wheels But

your momma will That


day honest momma showed him one of them a year Sometimes

it was almost like his dad was really there Sometimes

he laughed sometimes, he cried But

he always walked away Havin

learned? another lesson from his dad in, those 18 video tapes Like


when you shave don t?get too close Lose

the hair but leave the nose And

when your momma gives you my old truck Don

t?drive too fast or ride the clutch Don

t?listen to your buddies son when

the conversation comes to the birds and bees Just

go to tape 18 Well


I just need to tell you one more thing before I go It

won't be long you ll?have a little baby of your own Be

there for em ?every day no, matter what it takes Even

you have to put your love on 18 video tapes
