Lyrics
I was drivin' down the highway, just the other day
I had a little talk with my son
He said "Dad, when you and my mama weredating
How did you know she was the one?
And how did you manage to stay together
Through all these years, what's the key?"
I said, "Son, we just try to be good to each other
I think by now she's gotten used to me
He said, "How will I know when I've found the right woman
I don't want to make a mistake
And how will I know if she's one I should pass on
'Cause I'll live with the choice that I make,"
I said, "Son, there's a whole lot of things I could tell you
I'll make this as clear as I can
You won't have a doubt when you find the right woman
Just make sure that you're the right man
Be true to yourself and say what you mean
Make sure you mean what you say
And try hard to be just the man she thinks you are
And tell her that you love her every day."
I said, "Son, there's a whole lot of things I could tell you
I'll make this as clear as I can
You won't have a doubt when you find the right woman
Just make sure that you're the right man
