The Same Lyrics by Kenny Foster

Somewhere in Middle America

2022

[Verse 1]
And he drove the same blue Ford down the same three streets
To the same old job he held down since seventeen
Had the same three meals five days a week
Spent the weekend microwaving what we didn't eat
And I never understood, 'til one day he said to me
Son, this is all for you, but now, here's the thing
[Chorus]
You gotta take those chances, make mistakes
Chase those dreams, don't play it safe
'Cause that's what's gonna make your old man smile
Go on and change the world, but call your mom
See everything we never saw
But don't think the life I led ain't worth the while
Look at the house I'm in, the kids I raised
Things I missed don't mean a thing
Can't do it again, but I'd do it the same
[Verse 2]
In the same small town
Where I grew up
He built a whole wide world with the same sweet girl
That he still loves
He said, I want the same for you
But you gotta do what you gotta do
[Chorus]
So go on and take those chances, make mistakes
Chase those dreams, don't play it safe
'Cause that's what's gonna make your old man smile
Go on and change the world, but call your mom
See everything we never saw
But don't think the life I led ain't worth the while
Look at the house I'm in, the kids I raised
The things I missed don't mean a thing
Can't do it again, but I'd do it the same
[Post-Chorus]
I'd do it all the same
[Chorus]
So take those chances, make mistakes
Chase those dreams, don't play it safe
'Cause that's what's gonna make this old man smile
So go on and change the world, call your mom
See everything we never saw
But don't think the life I led ain't worth the while
Look at the house I'm in, the kids I raised
There ain't one thing that I would change
I did it right
And one day you can say the same
I'd do it all the same (Someday)
