He's My Dad chords by Chris Young
Verse 1
G
My dad, he's doing crazy things.
I'm even more concerned about my mom,
C
and I warned you about her.
G
Since my mom has retired,
my mom has now joined a gang.
No, my mom's joined a gang.
She now has a silk jacket.
It's got letters all across
the back of it,
and she's got a great big
Gm
G
gold and silver emblem
on the back of her car,
and it says something like,
A -A -R -P, yo.
Yeah, and I don't know what the motto of the A -A -R -P is,
but I'm sure it's something like,
we're old, we're bold,
we will not stand our coffee cold.
Yeah, yeah, we're rich,
and now we go to Florida
during the winter
to spend our kid's inheritance.
Yeah, that's a lot more funny to
F
those people right now
G
than it really is to me.
But my parents, in the last couple years,
they kind of became full -time snowbirds.
You guys know what the definition of a snowbird is,
don't you? It's someone that
moves from a cold climate
to a warm climate
during the wintertime,
only to call back up here
and ask me what the
weather's like.
It's a true, sir?
I get that call, it's about 6
.40 every morning.
It's always ring, ring, ring, ring.
And it says Sarasota, Florida.
And I got to pick the phone up
because this might be the day
I get to cash that inheritance in.
And I always say something stupid.
I say, cash call from Florida.
And it's always my mom.
No, no, no, idiot, still not funny.
Don't quit your day job, go to work.
It's just your mom,
I'm calling to see what the weather's like in Michigan today.
I said, what's the weather like in
Michigan, Mom?
You guys still have that big
screen TV
down there in your condo?
Yeah, and you still watch
the weather channel
from like four in the morning
till midnight every night?
Yeah, so about every 15 minutes
you're gonna get to know
what the weather's like
here in Michigan.
You see that big swap of pink
and white and blue
covering the whole mitten state
that should just say, crap?
Yeah, that's what the weather's
gonna be like
for the next three or four months.
That is why you left.
But I'm stupid. I always say this.
I say, you don't want to know the answer,
Chris.
You don't want to know the answer,
but I'm just being nice.
And I say, so what's the weather
like in Florida?
And she goes, oh, oh,
it got cold down here last night.
It got down into the forties.
Your dad turned the heat on.
I wore my long nightgown
and I wore socks to bed.
Yeah, I said, thank you mom for telling me
you wore your long nightgown
to bed
because that time you wore
your short nightgown to breakfast.
I still need therapy for that.
Cool, you don't have to applaud for that.
Someone's got to do some ironing
is all I got to say. Cool.
Man, this is awesome.
It's fun.
