Son's Reply
By Zach Cahall:

Here are the lyrics to my reply song I wrote last night.
It's from the son's perspective.
(Sung in the same tune as the original)

I standby every other Friday 
While staring at this highway 
I’m just waiting on the first sight of you
I'm ready for this weekend 
Dad, I can't wait to go fishin 
Told my friends about it all week at school 
As we drive and the miles go flying by 
I can't help but smile, as I slowly come alive 
Every time I get the chance to sit up in the front with you
And I love the days and the miles spent next to you
On this Highway 20 ride

Now dad you may not realize,
but I can see with these eyes 
that you and mom don't really get along 
You know dad I don't blame you, 
from where I sit it takes two 
I'm just glad you even care at all

As we drive and the miles go flying by
I can't help but smile, as I slowly come alive
Every time I get the chance to sit up in the front with you
And I love the days and the miles spent next to you On this Highway 20 ride

So now I drive Man, those years went flying by 
And I still smile Every time you cross my mind 
Those were the moments of my life That I'll cherish every time
Yeah when I think Of the time spent next to you on that Highway 20 ride
