And as they pulled into the drive
A million thoughts raced through his mind
Never again will you ever be alone
A man was waiting there outside
A rambler in his younger days, he knew he made a few mistakes
A rambler in his younger days, he knew he'd made a few mistakes
But he swore he would have been there, had he known it
Who cried and said he never knew
Who wiped the worry from his eyes
Smiled and took his hand
Who cried and said he never knew
She could see the questions in his eyes
Waves goodbye as they pull away
About that boy in pictures that they showed me
Son, we think we found your dad in Oklahoma"
He don't want to go, he thought he'd found his home
Whispered, "Don't be scared my child
Who cried because I never knew
A rambler in my younger days, I knew I made a few mistakes
And he said, "I'm the man who looks like you
You always said that this was something that you wanted
She said, "We found the man who looks like you
But he swore he would have been there, had he known it
'Til they reached the fifth house on the left
And all at once the tears came rolling in
But with circumstances he can't change
But I swear I would have been there, had I known it
And will he be anything like the man in his dreams
What's his name? What's he like?
From the life he's known, for the last seven months or so
About the boy in pictures that we showed him
About the boy in pictures that we showed him
Son, it's time to meet your dad in Oklahoma"
I will let you know, what we know
About the man we found, he looks like you
One last turn, he held his breath
