“He’ll make you mow the grass and do it for free, and you think your done, he’ll make you rake the leaves.” Literally the most relatable verse in the song
Dang it, I got half way through before I broke down. My Dad was never there for me. He left us when I was 5. I’ve always felt empty, having this void that can never be filled. But as I listened to this I didn’t think about that as much as I thought about the Dad I’ve become regardless of his absence. I Thank God everyday I was blessed with my children and being able to be the Father I never had.
@@FK-oz8kl the crazy thing is my Dad now has mental health issues. I’m out about $12k in bills and lawyer fees to get guardianship and conservatorship over my Dad. He was about to lose his house, and be another mentally ill Veteran on the streets. Luckily he worked for the govt and had money. I’ve cleared the 3 liens on his home, credit cards in collections, and had his power and water restored in his home. So now I’ve had to be there for the Father who was never there for me. Funny world. In June 2020 my Brother killed himself and his Daughter. Who was the same age as my Daughter. I had to clean up his house. Packed all his stuff. Set up his cremation. My Family didn’t or couldn’t help. My Mom dove back to alcoholism, my Dad deeper into mental illness. If it wasn’t for my faith, my Wife and kids I’m not sure how I could have done it. Thank you for your kind words. God Bless you and your family.
@@danm8747 proud of you man, keep the faith in God! He loves you and will give you everything you need to guide you through this tough times. My condolences for your brother and niece 😞 sending my prayers 🤲🏻
@@danm8747 my dad and mom split when I was 3 and he was nice till I was 5 but he met his new wife and daughter and started abusing me so now I live with my mom and step dad and I call my step dad my dad now bc he's the best
@@addieonline4097 yeah my Mom remarried when I was 10. My Step Dad was a good guy but already raised his kids and didn’t want to raise more, so we spent several years avoiding each other. A lot of it I didn’t help. I was angry, hurt, and rebelling. It wasn’t until I was in my mid 20s we got closer and became really close as the years went on. Looking back he didn’t really actively teach me much, but I learned my honesty, character, and work ethic from him. Which has helped me a lot in life. I still have that void. The pain. The wounds that never healed. Keeping healing. Talk about it, how you feel, and learn about how that experience affects the things you do so you can help spot the trauma and negative affects it has on how you do, what you do
I never had a dad. Now that I’m one, I’m gonna make sure my son never knows the pain of being alone and wondering why he wasn’t good enough. I love you John Shelby.
Beautiful. Use the pain to bring your kids all the joy he never gave you. My dad didnt have a dad and hes the best person i ever known. Makes me so sad thinking about him not having a dad like him. This paragraph is everything ❤️
Hi HashMaster, I'm in the same situation, except for me, it is not working out... I'm trying so hard to be the best Daddy, but things aren't working out as they are supposed to. I'M BEHAVING just like my father, and I even know him. I guess I'm scared to be a father. I'm scared of failing as a father... I hope it did work it out for you. There is nothing more important than a GREAT father in a child's childhood. Hashmaster 🤝🫡
Hope you know you’ve always been good enough some people have harder times seeing that than others but you’ve always been good enough! Bet you’ll be a great dad for your Son!
You are and always will be MORE then good enough. life happens, people happen. Now your blessed to give all your blessings to your baby. And thats the best blessing of all🩷
Brings me to tears. I miss my Dad so much. He wasn’t perfect but loved me unconditionally. Lost him when I was 16, he was 42. I remember all the lectures he gave me and I wish I listened to him better. I love you so much Dad. ❤️
I feel your pain my dad was best friend I lost him when I was 11 I’m 20 now and I just had my first daughter and I wish he was here to see it. Prayers for you
Lost mine jus in December of 2021, man wasn't perfect but he did everything he could for us three kids as a single parent. I was only 17. Three months later now I'm 18, and stuff jus still ain the same. This song jus hits home too hard.
This father's day is going to be hard for me. I lost my father, best friend, teacher and I will always remember the up's and downs good and bad. How he was there for me through two go arounds of cancer every appointment and he was my rock. That steady constant person is sadly missed but my faith in God grace I know that he is watching from above and one day he will lead me home. Thomas Rhett and all father's happy father's day. Kids go hug your father and thank him for all the things that he has done for you. Blessings to everyone from Edmonton Alberta Canada 🙏

@@thomasrhett5160 I love your song because it's so much the truth it's not even funny because I'm a daddy and I catch myself doing and saying alot of the things my daddy done and said
I've been a fan since you started your music career and I was born and raised in in a little town down here in eastern north Carolina named Richland's North Carolina it's grew up a whole lot since I was a kid 40 years ago this December 10th keep up the good work brother and we'll be praying for you
My dad pass before I was born and I live with my grandparents and I can totally agree my papa is an amazing dad (even if I’m not a boy). 😂. But this song fits perfectly with my life.
Perfect for my dad. It makes him want to cry because I am growing up so fast. This song is relatable. I love this song and thank you so much. I can play it for my dad on Father's day.
happy fathers day to all the wonderful dads out there my hubby is spending the day with his son today he couldnt be more happier our son is 19 and he could be more prouder and happy

I love this song and I love my daddy so much. ♥️ I’m now expecting our first son with my husband and this song now has a double meaning. My husband will be the best daddy. ♥️ And one day my son will be too. 🙏🏻
Lost my dad on December 3rd of 2021 from an unexpected stroke. Been a little over 2 months since he’s been gone, this song is absolutely gorgeous and tugs at the heart strings just right. Miss you dad 🥺❤️
The most important thing my dad ever told me was: "you can always come home It's doesn't matter what kind of trouble you get it into, you can always come home".
My old man kicked me out 4 months after taking me in after abandoning me for 5 years. I developed addictions and habits and just became Something that was a product of my lack there of guidance, and he still blamed me, and threw me back out. Your lucky.
Tears…. Just tears! My old man is still with us and call him every day. Dad myself (8 and 3 years old) and would love to be hair the dad he is/was! Genius song.
Best you have ever done! And that takes alot. Going through the start of dementia with my 85 year old father. Now I am crying that ugly cry. Thank you Mr Rhett.
I cannot tell you how relatable this is to me all the way down to my dad actually being the best man in my wedding. Now years later I work in law enforcement and he's always giving me advice as a retired law enforcement officer my God I didn't realize until today how much God bless me with my father....
This song touches my heart in way's words couldn't describe. Thank you for this song TR.❤ Also I just realized how much Lennon looks like TR in this photo, talk about copy and paste.❤

Man I love my dad lost him on sept10th 2021 ... miss him sooo much thanks Thomas for making me laugh cause THATS WHAT JUST DADS DO HAHAHHAHA now I can do to my son
I never had a dad so I'm learning to be one by myself. I'm not a great dad but I try. I just hope my daughter's never know all that I struggle with inside my myself. I hope they remember all the good times and not the bad. I hope they know I'm trying for them.
@Jessica Mcdaniels no but I can most definitely make country music, I listen to different genres of music cause it opens up my ears for new words in songs and stuff. Country music is a amazing I was raised on Country and Rock
I also want to say a big thank you to Danny me man because without you my daughter really wouldn't know what a father or best friend or lover would be like
Thanks for the comments, love and support may God continue to bless you some more and you can always text me on my private tour mail or burner cell number:sdisick200@gmail.com +1 (770) 852-5981
Just picked y oldest son up from boot camp in Ft Benning Ga I'm so proud of him even though I've not been such a good dad i hope he knows how sorry i am and how proud I am of him
Thanks❤️💕 I have come a long way to this great point and right from the very beginning you my fan have been solidly there for me , it's been a landslide but we pull through together ... your love and support are amazing and I appreciate every little effort .. always believe in yourself to achieve your goals ... Have you been to my concert before ?
Every time I had something go wrong my dad would tell me come sit down watch tv with me will talk about it 😔 I miss you daddy I know your in a happy place
My dad was. Awesome amazing incredible aways there for me in 1997 he did a intervention on me he saw me have 5 years clean and sober before he died on may 20th I was blessed with 24 years clean and sober I know he is watching over me and he is proud of me
Congrats brother. When I found out about my first one, I prayed until I got tired, that it would be a boy; I’m the last male with my last name. When me and my step son were in the room and found out it was a girl, to say I was upset was an understatement. When I knew my 2nd one was coming, I prayed until I got tired that it would be another daddy’s girl. I’ve never felt love like that in my life, when that little girl can say ‘daddy’ for the first time. It’s life changing 😢
I'm 16, turning 17 next year, I'm already scared to lose my dad, nothing can stop him from him seeing his kids, he makes all my days better, I don't wanna see him go
This song definitely hits home with me. Caz my son's mom and I have very different views on many things. But I can see he is so much like me just in a different way. But, things dad's do, to understand, love, and push there kids the be the best people they can be
My biological father gave me up when I was to and I thank God everyday that God gave me my daddy at age 3...anyone can be a father but it takes someone special to be a dad. I'm am 43 and just lost my mom and I miss her everyday and it makes everyday more special with my dad. Make everyday count. Tommorow is not guaranteed

My Dad Was Everything To Me. I Left My Law Enforcement Career Earlier Than Planned Just So We Could Move Back To Long Island And Spend More Time With Him. I Was Lucky Enough To Have 3 More Years With Him Before He Was Gone !! Talk To Him Every Day..
This is a mix between my dad and my grandpa the lawn mowing and cussing under the breath was definitely my grandpa. But he taught me to work hard and do it as many times as it takes to get it right.
He probably doesn’t remember a little club called Midnight Rodeo in Springfield Missouri , but I sure do! Rhett Akins was the first concert I ever went to and it was there. It’s been 20+ years but I remember it like it was yesterday ♥️

Well Thomas, Good tribute to all the dads out there. Espescially mine. Father's day is coming up on Sunday. My Grandfather's been gone for 10 years now.
This is so sweet, but the lines “ He'll sit in the waitin' room Chewin' Red Man 'Til the doctor comes out and says "Y'all, come on in" He'll say she looks perfect, then Shake your hand And say, "Now you'll understand" kinda made me sad when I realized that my dad will never get to meet my kids (that is if I have any) because he passed away when I was 6 or 7. I’m 13 now. Love it! ❤️❤️
