[Verse 1] Daddy was a cold man I was born on his birthday And after giving me his whole name He up and walked away Leaving just me and my mother She really couldn't give a damn Said that I was like my father I guess I don't know who I am [Chorus] Daddy, I didn't mean to be this way 'Guess I had no one to look and learn Out of all the things I've said and done Never thought that I'd come here and burn And out of all the stories I've been told Never could believe em to be true Guess I never really understood Destined I was to be just like you [Chorus] Destined Destined Destined [Verse 2] Now mama was a cold dame Broken-hearted by a cold man No I never thought she loved me But I did my best to understand And we all heard the stories He was an outlaw with all the fame He got me living in his glory Every time I hear my name [Chorus] Daddy, I didn't mean to be this way Guess I had no one to look and learn And out of all the things I've said and done Never thought that I'd come here and burn And out of all the stories I've been told Never could believe em to be true Guess I never really understood Destined I was to be just like you Destined [Chorus] Destined Destined Destined [Instrumental]
