Family Man Lyrics by James Taylor

Family Man

Woah jocko, dont expect me
To come out drinking, messin around
Spending my time
With a bunch of crazy people
Yes, I been there before
I dont need to go back no more

Im just a family man
Like it or not
I am a family man
Im a-holding onto what Ive got
Im a family man
Right by damn
Finally, find out what I am
Is a family man

And dont expect me
To hit the road
At a moments notice
Without my suitcase
With some crazy bunch of strangers
In some unknown car
Im just not willing to go that far

The life I used to lead was a little too frantic
I guess I just got eyes to grow old and grey
And if what I have in mind isnt super romantic
I guess I always saw myself this way

Im just a family man
Like it or not
Said Im a family man
Holding onto what Ive got
Im a family man
Right by damn
I, finally, find out what I am
Is a family man

Sears and roebuck
Howard johnson
Colonel sanders
Station wagon
Briggs and stratton
Second mortgage
If I can ever lose my blues
Walk on over and turn on the tv
What Id like to do is lie down on the sofa
Later on
I might walk my dog, baby
Bo diddleys a family man
