My buddy sent me an old photograph So many years ago it made me laugh When we should've won state by a mile and a half Lord if i could do it again I'd be two feet taller and twice stronger all Pound for pounder, lightning and thunder A double block engine on a summer night Full force and comin' round the bend Kinda man Kinda man Now I'm a proud and dedicated head of steam Vicarious livin' through the football team Was a five star phenom coach's dream Still think i could've gone pro Well if only I'd learn to curb my reckless ways Not thrown out my ankle in eleventh grade I'd be there every sunday runnin' the play If you put the rock in my hand Kinda man One of a kind of man All I know is I've been here before I've swept these streets, mopped these floors Even had myself a pretty little credit score Til the bank came and took her away Now I ain't got any special kinda plan Just try to show up whenever I can Be a warm blooded well drinkin' workin hand There's nothing more to understand Kinda man Oh one of a kind of man Oh kinda man So you better stay out of my way Kind of man
