Story Behind The Song
Because there is no book on becoming and being a good parent... the best I thought I could do was lead by example. However, if a son was to ever listen to advice from a father, this is what I would say.

Lyrics
MAN TO A MAN
TALK THE TALK
AND WALK THE WALK
NEVER LET THEM SEE YOU CRY
FEED YOUR DREAMS
AND SPREAD YOUR WINGS
TAKE EM TO THE MOUNTAIN HIGH
STATE YOUR CASE
FACE TO FACE
REMEMBER WHEN IT'S TIME TO GO
LET IN THE SUN
LET IN THE RAIN
THE FOREST IN THE FALLING SNOW ...THAT'S WHAT I SAID
FATHER TO A SON
FRIEND TO A FRIEND
MAN TO A MAN
I'M DOING ALL I CAN
FATHER TO A SON
MAN TO A MAN
MAN TO A MAN
LET IN THE LOVE
FROM FAR ABOVE
IT'S EASIER WITH TIME
DEFINE YOUR TRUTH
IN ALL YOU DO
YOU KNOW IT'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT
TAKE YOUR TIME
SMELL THE WINE
AND THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS
AND IN THE END
JUST BE FRIEND
REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE ...THAT'S WHAT I SAID
FATHER TO A SON
FRIEND TO A FRIEND
MAN TO A MAN
I'M DOING ALL I CAN
FATHER TO A SON
MAN TO A MAN
MAN TO A MAN
MAN TO A MAN
