[Verse 1]
A When I was younger D My daddy told me I would never A Never amount to nothing special D He'd come at me from every angle
He'd say
A "You're the last thing I wanted, the last thing I need D How am I gonna answer when my friends tell me F#m A D My son was kissing boys in the street?"
[Verse 2]
A He tried to change me D Said I'm embarrassing my country A How could I do this to my family? D Do I wanna grow up being lonely?
He'd say
A "We've worked for our money, we put you in school D Is this how you repay us? Do you think this is cool? F#m A D My son, stop kissing boys in the street F#m A D My son, stop kissing boys in the street"
[Verse 3]
A Now that I'm older D My daddy's heart's a little warmer A But he still won't hug me like my brother D And he still won't kiss me like my mother
He'd say
A "You're a part of this family, I made you myself D But the way that you act isn't good for your health F#m A D My son, stop kissing boys in the street F#m A D My son, stop kissing boys in the street"
[Verse 4]
A My daddy's dying D And he's finally realized I'm not lying A We sit in silence but we're smiling D Because for once we are not fighting
He said
A "There was no way of knowing 'cause all I was taught D Is men only love women, but now I'm not sure F#m A D My son, keep kissing boys in the street F#m A D My son, keep kissing boys in the street F#m A D When I'm gone, keep kissing boys in the street"
