Lyrics:
He’s Spider-Man in Walmart boots
And a camouflage hat
With a baby blue Zebco
That gets hung up every cast
He thinks he’s learning fishing
From the man that taught Bill Dance
And I think as I untangle it
And put it in his hands
I hope he never finds out that I didn’t hang the moon
And I’ve never scared a monster out the closet in his room
One day between him leaving home and driving on my knee
Maybe I’ll finally be the man he sees in me
He waves that blanket like a checkered flag
Pulling off of the interstate
With a Happy Meal cup held high
Like I won the big race
When we get home, his mind is blown
When I untie his shoes
And he smiles and says “Daddy
There ain’t nothing you can’t do”
Well I hope he never finds out that I didn’t hang the moon
And I’ve never scared a monster out the closet of his room
Someday between him leaving home and driving on my knee
Maybe I’ll finally be the man he sees in me
Well I know he’s gonna find out that I didn’t hang the moon
And there never was a monster in the closet of his room
Someday when he’s driving home with his son on his knee
Well I hope he’s trying to be the man he sees in me
The man he sees in me
The man he sees in me

It's kind of like a response song to Brad Paisley's He Didn't Need to Be.
Granted, that one is about an adopted dad from the POV of the son, but I feel that the sentiment is still the same — a kid's expectations for his father.
Just became a dad 2 months ago. I love my son so much
It's amazing to see how much thought this man puts into every aspect of life. Now he's a father of 2 and has savored every moment to make these songs we all wish we could write but he finds the right parts of it and creates a masterpiece
Make grown man cry
If you're too hearing this in 2035, hit like 🥹
Love it. My son who became a daddy about 9 months ago sent me this. Songs like this hit much harder when you have kids. Then again when you watch your kids become good and loving parents.
Thank you Luke!
I love you brother. I shore do miss him!!! Love you boys!!! 💞
The one thing I don’t like about this song is that it’s not long enough. I love this dude.
GOOSEBUMPS
I'm waiting to call my father,
Great Song and excited about the album release. Would love to have you come on the podcast to discuss the inspiration behind your new album as well as what fatherhood means to you. Thank you in advance for considering.
Luke combs is such an artist🤘🏻wow, this song is deep
Some of the cheesiest writing I’ve heard in a long time. This album nothing but pandering to all the NPC dad’s who are gullible enough to fall for this corn ball shit.
The album is fantastic. Completely amazing.
I hope he makes a video for videos I have plenty I could pick from
bro is legit my idol
