(It's Hard To Live Up To) The Rock

He was the captain of the team in '42

A favorite of the fans and the ladies too

I still love those stories about The Rock

He fought for his country in Normandy

And drove the Germans back to Germany

Captains right hand man was The Rock

And to me he look tall as a tree

At times I though he'd never notice me

Standing in the shadow of The Rock

I try to make him proud of me

But my mistakes was all he'd see

It always seems so hard to please The Rock

And he'll never know how hard I try

To be the man I thought that I shouldn't be in his eyes

And I gave my all to be strong and stand tall, to be The Rock

Oh, Lord, it's hard to live up to The Rock

He came to visited me the other day

I couldn't believe how much he'd aged

But in my eyes he'll always be The Rock

He said, "Son, ain't it funny how the years roll by?"

As he turned his head, I saw him rub his eyes

I never had felt closer to The Rock

He said, "Son, you made my life complete"

The only man I try to be

I never thought I'd hear from The Rock

And I was almost overcome when he

Said, "It's an honor to call you a son"

And I'm proud to say, "You're a chip off the old block"

And you'll never know how hard I try

To be the man I thought that I shouldn't be in your eyes

And I gave my all to be strong and stand tall and be your rock

Oh, Lord, it's hard to live up to The Rock

Oh, Lord, it's hard to live up to The Rock
