Boys In The Street

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