  • this song maybe sad and true butit makes theses kids grow up and not turn into their parents because they know the pain it causes. love this song

  • everyone has lost someone, or grew up with at least one alcoholic n their family, no ones lfe s worse then another, because you have no idea how they feel. some things hurt some people more, but take the best out of it, only those who have felt the greatest pain of life can truly feel the greatest love.

  • I don't have an alcoholic father, but my uncle is pretty bad and this reminds me of his sons that are still looking up to him today. This song hits home with me because I see how t affects his sons and I love this song so much...

  • my dad is not a alcholic but when he gotten cancer when i was 18 now im 24 it was sad to me

  • Fuck you dad

  • @EmoLexi333 Please do not say that about your daddy he might be doing bad or a lot of bad stuff but way down in his heart he love's you

  • remids me of mine

  • My daddy was an alcoholic.

    He died when I was seven because of it.

    I miss you daddy...

  • Walk a little straighter Daddy..

    Some day all the suffering will stop..

    And you'll be walking a little straighter with Jesus..

  • @B3AFR34K I will pray for you and daddy

  • mine was never there an alcoholic smoker abused my mom then after wards say sorry and be nice like its ok and hes now a diabetic barly able to walk eve though i love him its rough since he barly tries to even stay in my life and only for a few minutes at a time

  • u look so much like ur dad

  • His eyes are sooooo amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I love his eyes.<33

    && I can relate also.. my dad didn't do drinking, or drugs... but his temper and attitude reflected like he did... he was mean and a complete asshole... =/ he claims he wants to be in my life now, but i remember when I was 10 years old and I begged my mother to divorce him, and our lives have been so much better. He can be my dad, but i don't want him to try to be what he didn't wanna be 5+ years ago.

  • My ma used to drink, she made me realize i do not need drugs or alcohol. I can have fun without 'em, and I don't wanna have my kids go through it. I'd probably end up getting addicted, runs in the family. She is sober now, been a lil more then a year. I'm proud of her.

  • this song applies to every problem a parent has, not just drinking

  • My father did drink however we always came first before anything,he worked hard and would drink with his buddys on the weekends after he made sure everything else was paid,this song does remind me of my dads brother and his son though :/

  • I LOVE HIS EYES(:

  • His eyes

  • im pretty good at drinkin beer

  • i feel lucky to have a good relationship with my dad it makes me appreciate everything he has done for me, he has taught me so much and i heret of people that hate there dad because he is never there.

  • my whole family is alcholics my dad my grandparents . it has not affected me . but i have had to tell my dad to walk a little straighter

  • my dad isn't an alchoholic but my grandpa is and he doesn't realize that the reason he goes into the hospital so often is because he drinks too much

  • My dad was a drunk and it used to hurt so much when he ignored me when I felt like I needed him. He died 4 years ago and to this day I regret never confronting him about it. But when I think back I don't remember the bad times, I remember only the good times. I miss him so much and though he had faults I love him very much and I know he loved me too.

  • Most types of songs don't have meaning, but I will never, ever, ever be able to say this about Country!

  • @MsTaliDali ya country has a great meaning! not like some of those raps half the time u cant here what they say. It's all jumbled up words

  • If there's one good thing that I learned from my father, it's what not to do as a parent.

  • I feel as an addict right now that my daughter feels this way about me life consists of diversity and everyone has separate opinions:)

  • my dad is the same way

  • hey my dad is an alcoholic. Throughout my childhood, I always was taught he was a bad guy. However I love him to death. My dad might have an addiction does not change the fact that he loves me. I do admire the times he does call me drunk. It's still time I get to spend with him. I think a lot of people misunderstand this song. No matter what Billy says about his dad, he loves him unconditionally, and accepts him. 

  • @TheSmokinApples sometimes we underestimate the pressures parents are under,i grew up without a father,i turned out ok.cherish youre time with him

  • @TheSmokinApples My Dad was a severe functioning alcoholic who in spite of his addiction was always able to maintain a well paying job as a heavy equipment mechanic. He drank up all his money and was real bad about writing checks he couldn't always cash, but he was a good man underneath all of that! He could charm the birds out of the sky and was a real people person, even at his worse with his addiction! I loved him til the day he died from his addiction at 69! I still love him like crazy!!

  • @TheSmokinApples My dad too was an alcoholic and I loved him more than words can ever say.....Just because he had this horrible disease didn't make him love me any less. I also am a recovering alcoholic and have been in recovery for 21 years, Sadly, my dad passed away 7 years ago and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of him.....I think I loved him more because of his addiction. He was the best dad in my eyes no matter what anyone said about him. He was sick, not bad.

  • me daddy is like this to :( i find it verry sad! :( but i always keep my head up high and never let it bring me down :(!

  • @butterbrown9900 if u let it get to you it will only hurt you in the long run. everything that ur put through will only make you stronger in the end.

  • my dad was never there to see me grow into the person i have become.but i havent let that stop me from being who i want to be.when he laughed at my wanting to enter a writing contest it made me more determined to prove to him that i can be more than he ever will be.guess what, that contest, my entry placed and i got to meet M.T. Anderson because of it.when he was disappointed in my grades he though i wouldnt be able to pull them up only to make high honors last term.

  • this song was playing on gac oct 21 2003 when my grandson was being born

  • i can relate to this song

  • Truth is...your father can't give you...what he hasn't been given himself.My father was homeless,crack addict,beat my mother,drank listerine etc. and as a kid i always wished he'de just do right and love me.The older i got,(and not that it's right or ok but i understood it)i realized he was raised rough and he was just passing down what he had been given.For ME,i had to break the generational curse and be the BEST daddy and husband God has shown me to be.I have forgivenin my daddy.He's in heaven

  • some people learn from insperation and yet others learn from their parents in spite of them.

  • And.....the hood falls down

  • people who drink dont reliaze what it does to the people around them dang it.

  • My real dad died. But my mom. Shes an angel :)

  • His eyes... ;)

  • it just tall u geys so poeple dont have it eazzer like u

  • @allday2713 English norther f***er do you speak it?? my dad drank

  • @iamdet32 norther? English MOTHER f***er can you spell it??

  • My dad keeps teaching how to be a great dad all I got to do is don't treat my kids like he treats me lot of people say that im going to regret say this but they don't know what he doing to me so when the time comes I will never treat my kids the way he treats me

  • This song makes me cry a little bit...

  • My dad made me who I am today..

    Cause him never being there..

    Made me that much stronger..

  • @KianaaMariee11 True. What doesn't kill you will either make you strong or drive you crazy. My father died when I was 7. For me, there has been a lot, and a lot of times when I sure would have love to talk to my father. My mother is great, but there is a place in our hearts only a father could fill.

  • @rcadag i know how it is not to have a dad my died when i was 4 and if he was still here or lived longer i would not be how i am today and even thou i did not know him so well i still follow in his steps and do some of the same things.

  • @KianaaMariee11 ... I can relate to that. Even though we half way across the world from you in America we all are humen. I served in my countries military for almost 12 years now. I bet if my dad ever got to know me he would of been proud. I herd he left for the U.S. when I was only 5 years old. But all in all, Im as strong as ever just like you. My faith has been there and my father is Jesus Christ.... Much love from Russia..... Signed Nikoli

  • @KianaaMariee11 i know what ya mean there. never saw my father but it made me a lot stronger for it

  • @KianaaMariee11 yea but deep inside you no it hurts its a good thing you feel that it has made you stronger but if you have anger issues depression issues ec. tht could be a reason why

  • @KianaaMariee11 thats so sad but i'm happy for you for being a stronger person

  • Comment removed

  • cryin so much because i did that to my kids, that my did to me i had always said id never do that but i did and now i am walking straighter and maybe one day my kids will see that

  • i dont know why 40 people disliked this but My step dad has done stupid shit cuz of him being drunk I love him to death though im 13 this song goes soo great with him, but he also blends in with people are crazy by Billy guys just hope and be happy if your dad isnt drunk you all can survive just love ppl for who they are and not for what they doo :'(

  • @25crazylizard so many ppl drink idk why it only hurts them on the inmside

  • man.. i dont have an alcoholic dad or a dad at all, but this song make me cry for some reason,

    im 19. just got my heart broken and i just watch the video of im pretty good drinking beer.

    i got wasted 3 days after she left me. so i could sleep n not dream of her. but thats not me. so i only drink 1 or 2.

  • This song/video always makes me cry. My dad was an alcoholic, and it ultimately killed him. At 19 years old, I was the one who found him. No one should have to go through that. Despite all the problems the drinking caused, I still loved him and I miss him very much. He did teach me that I never want my children to go through what I did. And I thank him very much for that.

  • My dad has always had a drinking problem,and when this song first came out,i cried so hard,because the song reminds me of all i watched and dealt with growing up.he is not as bad as he used to be but he is still my father and I love him anyway and one thing that i did learn is that my child will never have to say that to me

  • i feel so sorry for anyone who has an alcoholic parent!

  • look at his eyes!

  • @barrelracin98 they're gorgeous, aren't they? :)

  • @farmersdaughter1996 haha yes!

  • @barrelracin98 i love how everyone is writing like longggggg story on here, and we're just looking at this eyes! haha!

  • @farmersdaughter1996 haha yeah lol

  • my kids will never have to say that to me

  • my dad let alcohol ruin his life. he was chopping some tree limbs off a tree after a storm and he had had too much to drink. he lost his balance and fell and hit his head on the ground. he layed there till someone noticed he was gone and found him unconscious. the hospital couldn't do much. he never was the same person. he didn't die on that day, but the daddy i knew no longer is real...i haven't been aloud to see him in about 6 years.

  • Comment removed

  • well i learned one thing from my father.....and that is how not to treat your kids......stupid crackhead

  • My dad is like this but not with alcohol he's into drugs really bad. And it got worse 11 years ago when he walked in and found my uncle, his brother, dead of an overdose of pills. And I'm so afraid that I'll walk in one day and find him dead. It scares me to the point I don't want to go see him anymore...

  • My dad is like this.. its pretty hard sometimes. :/

  • @NikkiSueElliott My dad's like this to. It effects everyone. my sister and her bf ignore me alot to

  • My dad recently told us he wouldn't be at my sisters or I's graduation. For no reason he will be at home watching a movie and drinking. I will never drink because of him. Alcohol took any relation I would have had with my grandfather and my dad barely knows me... God help anyone with this problem

  • i would have showed this to my dad but alcohol killed him too soon

  • wow this song is so amazing my dad use to drink alot when i was little never really got the chance to be led by him and probably never will but this song explains everything

  • When we talk and watch shows together we talk and laugh like at that part with the car. Maybe that's why but I just can't be mad at him...

  • I know I'm supposed to be kind of mad at the dad but I somehow can't be. I know he's alcoholic and all but there's something there. He loves his son and you can see it in the video. He gives his son an heirloom in a way. He comes out to fix the car and bumps him and smiles, waves good bye.

    It's kinda like my dad. My dad doesn't drink a lot but there's a little thing between us. He's not big on the things I like and bashes it often. But I don't really care and I know he loves me.

  • Alcohol tore my family apart; NEVER will my kids ever have to tell me this. I saw first hand and would never do that to my children, let alone wish it on my worst enemy.

  • Comment removed

  • I can't get over how sad this is.. I just can't stop crying.. :'( terrible how some kids live.. with fathers like this

  • im 19 years old and crying is a rare occasion for me, but alcohol is destroying my parents relationship and my dad doesn't even realize, i try and say something about it he just gets mad and storms off, i wish he would just get the picture. this song makes me shed a tear everytime i hear it

  • @420Galusha mine too

  • this is just so sad....i cant help but cry

  • Saw him live in DETROIT MICHIGAN on August 20th, 2011!!!!!!!! Go Billy!!! ♥

  • my dad's been an alcoholic my whole life, as a child thats what I thought all fathers were like. I only realised in the last few years that it wasn't normal. The lyrics of this song are so true.

  • THOSE EYES :)

  • my dad is an alchaholic i cant remember once that i saw him before my teens when he wasent drunk i dont talk to him much now cause he dosent know when to stop drinking and he wont get help

  • i love billys eyes i wish i had them a beautiful blue

  • thankful God gave me to my daddy.. i could have been born way far away from here to someone else..but nope... im proud to say that ricky spence is my daddy and i love him!!! :)

  • i don't know if i'm lucky or not that i never had to say that to my dad but its hard to follow someone when his ashes are on my desk.

  • im going to be a marine and i used to drink ALOT when i was a teenager and now i have a son of my own and i hope he wont have to say walk straighter daddy.

  • hoorah

  • I miss my pops :(

    R.I.P daddy take a shot for me in

    the place they call heavan.

  • Reminds me of my uncle and his son

  • Proud of my old man . . . never drinks, never smokes, never been in trouble with law and has always been there when i needed him. Thats the man i want to me. He will always be the man that i want my kids to see in me

  • I was cut short of my fathers life when he was murdered (i was only 3, but a daddys girl) and now I dont even remember him. from what my mother told me he drank every day except on sunday. But I wish I could of grown older to know him! Now he has 8 grand kids he dont even now because of some lady!

  • cant stop listening, so sad...:( but so true:( too many of us have to deal with this:(

  • I am so proud of my own father. After his own dad died, someone asked him why why he didn't stop in the middle of the afternoon to get a beer; wasn't it the same without his father anymore? Dad replied "No. It's because I was starting to look forward to it too much."

  • i love this!

  • This.. was my song for a LONG time. I am 14 now and everything is better but I know how it feels, especially when you know there's nothing you can do to change them. Hang in there, it WILL get better.

  • Trololololol. Seriously though don't even respond back to these people trolls are just nobody's they hate their lives so that's why they troll. Go ahead and troll away troll your not gonna hurt my feelings.

  • My dad was never an alcoholic but this song always brings tears to my eyes...

  • I'm that daddy...I want to be better...but it's hard to do....I love my son....just don't know how to stop!!!

  • @joshclark1872010 PLEASE, PLEASE GET HELP. Call your doctor, and tell him/her that you believe you have a drinking problem. They will know where you can get help. Trust me, it affects a kid's mind to see his father drunk and stumbling. It's painful to see your daddy, your idol, tripping and stumbling. PLEASE GET HELP. Even though you're a stranger, please. Do me a favor and get help. It will helps everything. God bless.

  • i love this song even if it makes me cry n i love his eyes

  • this is pretty much my entire childhood :/

  • @shammmwoww I FEEL U

  • Well....I'm here because I like the song

  • I hope my son never tells me that I've got a bad drinking problem and I have not had a drop of alcohol I will be strong for him sorry if I have any typing errors its hard to see the keyboard with tears rolling down your eyes

  • @guillermo2k90 dont worry your gonna be fine

  • can everyone please stop fighting. this song is amazing and I have no idea what you guys are fighting about nor do I care but just stop and enjoy the song or get off this page. Kay thanks.

  • my dad used to be the biggest drunk..when this song came out my little brother showed it to my dad, and he started crying..he now is getting help to be there for me and my little brother :)

  • @00Lawlz00 that is awesome, I have a similar story but my dad long left his alcohol; his addiction for the last 27 years has been his work and he wasn't there for us until I attempted suicide and called him a failure as a father.

    It sucks that sometimes us men are woken up to things the hard way, but now my father knows his sons needed him and I have realized how much I love that old guy.

  • @00Lawlz00 AMEN and congrats to you dad!

  • @00Lawlz00 I showed it to my dad last night...he cried. But nothings different

    You're a fucked up kid, you know that? I think we should all feel bad for your family and future family if you live that long. I'm not saying i'm gonna do anything because i dont know where you live, but one day you're going to say something to the wrong person. Will get you shot or your ass beat. It will happen, just because you're ten doesnt mean you cant be touched. Say everything you said to everyone else to everyone you meet in the world. I bet you wont make it to 18. :)

  • @ArtranGaming haha fuck up you fagget nerd. im doing great its all you lil pussies that are fucked up.

  • @Ryan161x

    Calling me a faggot nerd. You're fucking FUNNY kid. Shit, you try to insult me, yet you can't spell? Great. I'm almost 100% sure id whoop your ass in a fair fight. Also, where you get nerd from? Is it because i play computer games? Not everyone that plays video games is a no life bastard. So get the fuck off the computer and get a fucking life. All you do is troll on youtube. Lol.

  • @Ryan161x talking openly about painful things helps a person cope, keeping it all in hurts. You are being a bully, saying stuff like that just makes you look like an immature fool. Are you really so heartless and stuck up you can't sympathize with other peoples pain and way of dealing with it? Saying things like that effects people and can make someone already hurting hurt worse. Look beyond your nose and think about the consequences of your actions.

  • @Sweetness4955 lol talk to a therapist u lil cocksucker

  • @Ryan161x ya, nice comeback. reeeal mature. U need a dose of reality buddy. I hope u dont go through yur whole life as immature, narrowminded and cruel as you are now. Good luck and Good ridance.

  • @Sweetness4955 haha if i wanted a comeback i would scrape if off your m
