[Verse 1]
It ain't my fault that Daddy's mud shines on what you raised
That we look alike and we talk the same
Don't forget, it was you who gave me his name

[Verse 2]
I had no say in growing up the way that I did
Born to a home that was broken by two kids
Causing you to lose faith
Then forcing you to save face
Is just how I’m stitched

[Chorus]
But I know how to hold a grudge
How to run before it gets tough
I guess that's Daddy's mud

[Verse 3]
If I'm turned loose I'll have one and not know when to quit
I'll cause a scene if I'm told my temper's a little quick
Get as close to the edge as I can get if I get an inch

[Chorus 2]
I shift the blame a little too much
I'll sit in the rain and curse you for my rust
I guess that's Daddy's mud

[Verse 4]
If there's smoke there's a fat chance that I'm close by with a match
With my pride locked tight and guarded with a can of gas
And a fear that if it gets lost I won't get it back

[Chorus 3]
What I'm made of might not be much
But to me what I got, it's enough
Even if it's Daddy's mud
