I am 29 years old and cry every time I hear this. My dad was drunk every night and abusive. Typical drunk dad. He couldn't tell you one thing about me or my childhood. Although we talk sometimes, we don't have the best relationship. As Billy says, my daughter will never have to say "walk a little straighter" to me. I couldn't imagine not being there for her or even letting her see me like I saw my dad. Although he's messed up, he made me the man I am today.

This song really touches my heart. (On a side note- HIS EYES ARE BEAUTIFUL ARENT THEY?)

It hurts me every time I listen to this song because sure I have a dad but he is a complete dead beat and left my mother to marry another woman after he left he never tried to call until he needed money and wanted foodstamps off of me an after he left my mom could only get with drunks so I have a bad experience with dads but I am now with my cousin that is more of a father figure to me than my own father ever was even close to this song hurt a lot

[GummpyCat]

@unclecode3 try to help your brother, help his kids when ever they need it too but if you want it better for them you have to help him

[unclecode3]

this song reminds me of my brother he's now a dead beat dad i'm more of a dad to his two boys who are now seven and four they know him but I fear they will never really have a relationship with him and he will become nothing more than a memory to them I don't want people to think I hate my brother because I don't I just hate the man he has become.

[Brittany M]

Yep you have that right :)

[Wendy Hardman]

This song hits home. My dad is in my life but has never been more that a bank to me and the rest of his daughters. And now I have two daughters of my own and the youngest ones dad has been trying to get sober for two years now. I am just thankful that she is young enough that she does not realize it.

[Juli Kirkpatrick]

awww...thats sad :'(

[Cody Castro]

Us dads don't realize that all are kids want is just some times to spend us. We are just so caught up on life bills an stress. I learned now that there just needs to be a day with kids only no phone no friends nothing just focus on the kids.

This song just hurts to lesson.

[Ann-Marie Marshall]

This is a beautiful song.
