[@nmgualandi]

my Dad may be an alcoholic but he still held down two jobs to get us by when my mama left when I was a baby. Not every alcoholic is a bad person or abusive. He still taught me to respect my elders and hold my own in this world. Granted it took a turn for the worst when his dad died and I've been in the hospital sitting with him several times due to it almost killing him but is a good man regardless he just doesn't know how else to handle what HE'S had to go through. Alcoholics have their own stories too. And he means the world to me and idk what I would do without him. Love you Daddy!

I relate i drink to cope more than anyone should stopping isnt easy and im sure ill be insulted its fine the devil grasps and doeant let go but i work work pay pay pay

Good attitude my friend.

I wanna say thanks to Billy for this song. My daughter sent it to me 3 years ago and I was messing up bad with drugs. This song woke me up and changed my life forever. God bless you and I thank you for this song. I been sober for 2 years and I owe it to my daughter and you Mr Currington.

This song sobered me up for my family

[@dennishein2812]

I was a functional drunk. Wasn’t till I became a single father that I was able to quit. My daughter asked me not to buy no beer one night. She had bad asthma and when I looked at her I saw her lying on the floor having one of her dangerous attacks and me in a chair drunk. I quit 37 years ago.

[@VictoriaIngram-fe6zi]

Thank you for quitting ❤❤😊😊

[@JaxsonWyatt]

This song is not about drinking, it's about how we as children observe more about our parents than they think and we can easily become what they once were.

[@ryanlarrabee79]

That's so true man

[@preston1370]

I agree - my dad didn't need alcohol to be awful, violent, and selfish. I've learned what NOT to do from him, and I'm gonna be a great dad someday because of him, indirectly. That's why I love this song, even tho he wasn't an alcoholic

[@danisalusky6470]

JaxsonWyatt I listen to it Bc it makes me think of my dad that died 3 weeks ago from drinking

[@danisalusky6470]

JaxsonWyatt and when he was in rehab he sent me and my sister this song bc they listened to it

[@wwatkin21]

Um yes the song is about his alcoholic father.

My dad has been a raging alcoholic since i was born 27 years ago and just a couple months ago he was in icu for liver failure but now i think things has changed i may get to see my dad sober for the first time in my life 😭 i lost my mom to drug overdose when i was 16 so hes all i have left

[@nelsoncuyle2497]

Prayers. My son never got to see my walk straighter. He's passed now to the scourge of phentanal. I pray the good Lord allows me to be a dad to 3 beautiful boys. Boys of a woman I love. I'm sober now just a couple weeks.

[@silvioortega6021]

I became a full time single father and I use this song as inspiration and to remind me that my two girls mean everything to me and that I must be the best I can be for them.

[@hitch-tf5rh]

What a good dad, they are likely to have a father like you:)

Careful the things you say......Children will listen. Careful the things you do......Children will see, and learn.

[@aamirmajeed2040]

There are little eyes upon you and they're watching night and day. There are little ears that quickly take in every word you say. There are little hands all eager to do anything you do; And a little boy who's dreaming of the day he'll be like you. You're the little fellow's idol, you're the wisest of the wise. In his little mind about you no suspicions ever rise. He believes in you devoutly, holds all you say and do; He will say and do, in your way when he's grown up just like you. There's a wide-eyed little fellow who believes you're always right; and his eyes are always opened, and he watches day and night. You are setting an example every day in all you do; For the little boy who's waiting to grow up to be just like you.

Wish I would’ve took this into consideration sooner... I have failed as a father to my two year old.

Amen

[@todyefor7318]

When I see my son start becoming reserved and not laughing like a child should, this song always reminds me to straighten up. I don't drink but a couple beers a year, but this song doesn't necessarily have to be about being drunk. As parents we all need a reminder to walk a little straighter.

[@mattsmith656]

Yes! That’s what happened to me.. never ignore the initial signs!

[@crawldaddy7]

Amen

[@KEhandyservices]

My dad has struggled with drugs my entire life. I remember seeing him OD’d on the floor as a child MANY times. I remember hearing this song as a child and thinking about him and how badly I wanted him to get sober. I’m turning 20 this year and he’s still struggling. I love him dearly and don’t want to lose him. I just wish he’d stop. But as I’m starting my family I never want my children to have to say walk a little straighter. I’ve never tried any drug because I’ve seen the effects. I want my children to feel safe.

Understatement of the century. I remember buying a dozen cd singles for this song for their jewel cases because they were like 50 cents each thus it was cheaper to buy these than new cases to replace my broken ones. I played the song and have loved it every since. Best way to lead is by example.

Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support 😘❤️😘

[@AngelinaATF]

My son stood up to his abusive father after 14 yrs of taking more than any child should. (He was protecting myself & his lil sister). Though his father didn’t drink all the time, it was enough. More than enough. And of course he had an abusive father too. But my son ... I was so proud of him going chest to chest w him, telling him HE HAD ENOUGH. He said to his father the exact same words he’d heard so many times before: “If you ever touch me or my sister or hurt Mom again, I WILL beat YOU within an inch of your life. You always said you were bigger, meaner, tougher than me but truth is you’re NOTHING! Go ahead dad, bring it on”! ✋🤚My son said, shoving his chest toward his father. (I had been extremely ill w Lupus since my pregnancies but now miraculously in remission). His dad turned around & left, FOREVER! We just finished a 3 year divorce which he fought me for custody! (this guy is a great actor, would win an academy award). He APPEALED our divorce to the Supreme COURT & I just won 3 weeks ago. Now I am trying to help my teens.

[@judeproulx4021]

This song hits me. Music is the only thing capable of making me cry. Makes me feel like an asshole for all the times I piss of my dad :( all he does is work hard to provide me with a good life and I act like an asshole.

[@jamieknopik8078]

When I first heard the song, I gasped for breath. I wondered if whoever wrote the song heading on me personally, and had known my dad. I also waited by the door for him to come home. He would also passed me bye go straight to the refrigerator, grab his bottle and sit down in the chair. He pretty much disappeared after that. He was there, physically, but not mentally or emotionally. My entire childhood was this way. I was never able to get close to him. I was the oldest, and my brother and sister halfway through their childhood got to know him sober. Because eventually he did quit drinking. We get along and I think you trying to make up for lost time. I don’t hold a grudge and I let him try to make up for it. At least he quit drinking. And I’m proud for that because so many don’t I know this because I’m a hospice nurse. I see many people dying of cirrhosis.

My son is seven, and his dad is in and out of jail and rehab. His heart is hurting for him, he always says "My dad is in a place to get better." except hes been out of rehab for 3 months and hasnt called his son. Dayton tells people his dad loves his whiskey, and used to take him for walks to get it from the gas station. He never can be sober. i just wish he would get better for my son. Everyone needs a daddy.

[@judeproulx4021]

Hello Melissa

[@okjac80]

I'm burying my own alcoholic father on Saturday. He passed away from cirrhosis due to decades of heavy drinking. I loved him dearly despite our relationship being up and down for over 40 years bc of his drinking. This song really hits home....

Hello, how are you doing?

[@sddRd68]

My brother is facing the option of getting his pancreas removed and possibly not being able to eat food for the rest of his life because his pancreas is so damaged from alcohol. please, Please, PLEASE don’t look at this as shaming him, I’m proud of him because he quit drinking in 2020 and hasn’t touched a drop. This is written in hope of reaching people who think they might need to quit drinking, please do it before your family has to watch you suffer like he is. He’s my baby brother and nothing has, nor ever will, made me love him less. I’m just terrified of the thought of him not being here anymore. He’s 9 years younger than me, I should be leaving before him but we don’t get to choose that. Choose sobriety, choose life and that’s the best gift you can give your family.

I have tried and tried to help him get clean but he just doesn't want it.. He doesn't have a relationship with my kids because I can't trust him.. And he holds anger towards me for it because he thinks he doesn't have a problem.. He does. Shit hurts man. :(

[@judeproulx4021]

Hello Ashley

[@dschlater624]

My dad was an alcoholic all my life. A lot of rehabs and sober homes but never got him off it. I remember we were watching this video and when the dad gave him a pocket watch he went and got me the pocket watch he always carried around. I was maybe 7 or 8 when that happened and only got a few more years with him after. It’ll be 10 years since he passed this September. Still have that pocket watch in my truck.

[@CatherineBeanesMusicChannel]

This song makes me cry because I never got to meet my daddy. I don't know anything about him because my mom always said it was none of my business or I didn't need to know. I have never had a biological daddy, but my grandpa has always been a father figure to me and I'm thankful for him because if it hadn't been for my grandpa I would have never had a daddy. So, thank you grandpa for always being here!

[@tribblegirl2]

You have a right to know. Your mom has no right to withhold that information from you. :(

Grew up without ever knowing my dad. Mom never thought it was important to know. He was married and I was born out of wedlock in 1964. Times have changed, but then it was hush hush.

[@marlenigonzalez2739]

I remember looking up To look up to him And I remember most the time He wasn't there I'd be waiting at the door When he got home at night He'd pass me by to go to pass out in his chair And I'd say Walk a little straighter daddy You're swaying side to side You're footsteps make me dizzy And no matter how I try I keep tripping and stumbling If you'd look down here you'd see Walk a little straighter daddy You're leading me He stumbled in the gym On graduation day And I couldn't help but feel So ashamed And I wasn't surprised a bit When he didn't stay He stumbled out before they called my name And I thought Walk a little straighter daddy You're swaying side to side It's not just me who's watching you've caught everybody's eye And you're tripping and stumbling and even though I've turned 18 Walk a little straighter daddy You're still leading me The old mans still like he always was But I love him anyway If I've learned one thing from him Its my kids will never have to say Walk a little straighter daddy You're swaying side to side You're footsteps make me dizzy And no matter how I try I keep tripping and stumbling if you'd look down here you'd see Walk a little straighter daddy You're leading me Yeah walk a little straighter daddy You're leading me

[@scullydana5114]

My father was either drunk or absent after the tenth year of my life up until 21

[@marjoriezamora7361]

This song is sad. It is about alcoholism but also eludes that the dad is leading him through life and the boy is basically saying watch how you lead as a role model. Thats how I take this song

[@taylorrhyne4205]

This song finally got my sons father to wake up. He listened and cried thinking of our son watching him and realizing he wants to be his hero and never wants our son to look at him and be disappointed or sad. Thank God I found this sound

[@quartzy_jane2153]

Hope your family is healing now and he can be the best sober version of himself, both for him and your little boy

[@superwholock1485]

This song really shows what it's like living with an alcoholic. My stepfather is an alcoholic, and even though he has made many mistakes I have never stopped loving him. He stopped drinking about a year ago, and by the Grace of God he's stayed sober. I think a real turning point for him was when I came home about two years ago and he was lying, unconscious, on the back porch. I had to drag him inside and give him water until he recovered. It was hot outside and he was drunk, and passed out on the stairs. He was there for three hours before I got home. Something about having your 13 year old stepdaughter drag you inside tends to show you that you need to change. It took several tries, and many nights shivering under the blankets, hoping against hope that He would make it till morning alive, but he's now one year sober. Through all that, we still love him and I know he loves us. to all the alcoholics that think you can't get sober, you can. Don't let alcohol be the reason your life ends too soon!

[@WasuWasuSu]

SuperWhoLock14 amazing that your dad sobered up. Even when I was 12 and carried him inside with neighbor help, my dad still drinks. He's made promises to drink less or even quit but my faith in him has pretty much dried up because I'm 23 now and all I hear are empty promises. I love him, and he's the only dad I've ever known. But He's shown me what not to do, what not to look for in a partner for life.

[@elisabethgrace9216]

My stepdad loves me to death but from the minute he gets home from work and the minute he goes to sleep. He's got a drink in his hand. I've never seen the liked of it. I love that man to death but I'm worried about him as well.

[@brittneycoleman8174]

This song goes to show that everyone has a past & anyone can get through it. For those of you that don't know, his dad was really a drunk. Billy ended up living with another family because of this! His first CD is dedicated to his "claimed" brother Allen. Allen is my x grandpa!

[@michaelparham7137]

I use to blast this song when I was about 10. I'd go see my dad for a weekend visitation, and I played this on guitar for him. (at the age of 10). he chose beer over his children. I love him so much, and always will. but he's not a good man. I haven't seen him in 8 years. if he had been in my life, I might not have got raped by his drinking buddy, my brother might not have drowned when he was 4, and I would have someone to call dad. occasionally, I go over to the home I grew up [my moms house] to do yard work, and I'll find an old empty Busch beer can in the woods. I always think of him, and this song plays in my head. if your out their daddy.. I love you, and always have. I forgive you. I only hope your doing well, and have managed to kick the can. if you haven't, I still love you. perhaps you'll find peace in the next life.

[@OneBiasedOpinion]

Good to realize that this isn’t just about addicts, nor even about parents. Everyone has influence and it makes an impact on the people who watch you. Don’t ever forget that.

[@MH-on8ol]

My father was a drinker and abandoned the family along with his kids from a prior marriage for multiple other women. He died young never and bothered to know his own children. The damage done to the family can't be measured. I chose not to drink in my mid 20s and was determined to be present for my girls who are great adults and made be a grandfather. In the end it was his greatest gift to me serving as an example of what not to be. Hard song to hear but it happens often.

Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support ❤️😘❣️

[@Lonewolfshh]

its astounding how often parents forget that every moment someone is watching them. Not judging them per say, but watching and looking for guidance down the road call life. All our actions are noticed and they in one way or another influence someone else. Either negative or good someone is following in your footsteps be it your children, your friends, or a stranger that passes you by. Know that those who strive for the stars may never notice the light they shine on others, but the good you do will be noticed whether or not you do it. But unfortunately any little thing you might do for whatever reason if its seen as bad more often then not people will pick up on that quicker than the good. Because humanity is always looking for some way to destroy each other or bring them down a notch.

[@pattiarnold6830]

This was the last video Billy C. Did before his nervous breakdown.......u can see the thinness. Then look at people are crazy it was the first video after his hospitalization.......his father was the reason and this song has a lot of feeling

Hello Patti

[@barrowlatasha86]

Still love him to this day. Man he got talent

[@Jabooty_Williams]

Billy is amazing. In all of his songs you can tell he thought about them

[@Twilight242]

I love my dad and fear the day I lose him. I spend everyday with him. Even though his memory don't work he taught me everything I know today. He doesn't drink or do anything, but I love him cause him n momma adopted me at 8 days old and gave me a chance at life with my own family wouldn't take care me while I was in the hospital with a feeding tube. I 23 and have him n mom to thank. love daddy

Hello Jane

[@millworker57]

So I have a three month old daughter I'm twenty three years old and my wife left the other day and this song hits home I'm so scared

[@mikegood3425]

Why tf would u do that😐😡😠

[@derrickennemer5050]

I just saw your comment, its 5 year old. You got this, I was 22 when my oldest son was born, and was a single father first 15 years of his life. Youll be fine, and do what you gotta do, because when someone calls you daddy, theres is no giving up. You got it, thats what men do.

[@susanduvall3017]

So true. I was following my daddy’s 🦶 footsteps. Then I am thankful God woke me up and realize that there was more than drinking. Love your music Billy

[@ryanmay2360]

I could not make it through the whole song without crying .......

[@Realbillygilmanmusic]

Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support ❤️

[@gageparmenter1624]

my dad used to be addicted to herion for a very long time and i would watch him sleep for a week straight sometimes, when i found this song a few years ago it broke my heart so much and i sent it to him. he went to rehab detoxed and never touched that shit since. hes still an alcoholic which i understand is still very hard to just stop but hes doing way better and i thank billy for this song. it really changed my dad to a better person.

This song is filled with Truth for so many!! 💜✝️🎶

My father is now a recovering alcoholic but I still love him. He was abusive and mean but after 13 years he finally got help. There are times I still wander if he really loved us back then....

[@MrHittle1700]

My Daddy was an an alcoholic, but he did his best with what he had. He always provided for us. I miss him so. He lead me to where I am. He has been gone 2 years now, but I still remember the mountain of a man he was. I have raised 4 outstanding children. I just wish he was still here.

[@judeproulx4021]

Hello Shannon

[@user-rf5rl9dt5v]

This song has been my favorite because my friend Josh went through it and his dad stumbled in at the Christmas play and all us kids saw and knew what he was going through.

[@Realbillygilmanmusic]

Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support 💞❣️

[@OhCalaOG]

Favorite part is about how he mentions his future kids. Im 15, and I deal with the same thing . My father isnt a huge drinker but he lets me down 24/7, my kid(s) will never view this Ill be the greatest Dad possible and give them the best life they could Imagine.

[@boonch9103]

This song really touches my heart I was that child growing up thank you for this song it really touches my soul

[@judeproulx4021]

Hello Deanna

[@monteeng3182]

😭 my oldest nephew is a alcoholic..this song makes my heart cry for his three children..all boys ..God bless them is all I can say

[@reneed.murphy-hughes7134]

Most that grew up with an alcoholic parent can relate to this. Forget the nurturing, maybe - just maybe you'll find that as an adult. But generally without a positive role-model for a husband or wife, you'll just find the same kind of person who scared you through childhood. My father didn't make it to my graduation. He died from his illness before then. I've learned and tell others, your parent(s) may have stole your childhood, but it's your choice to allow them whether or not to steal your adulthood. I promised myself I wouldn't and I'm not. God Bless All Adult Children of Alcoholics and Other Substance Abusers!

[@judeproulx4021]

Hello Renee

[@maggieg9024]

I heard this song for the first time in years and it brought me to tears. The line about walking into the graduation has always gotten to me because this really did happen at my graduation celebration in high school. My dad battled an alcohol addiction throughout my entire childhood and into my 20s and has been sober for several years now. I have never been prouder of anyone.

I wish I could have told him before he passed away.

[@jaykuya]

+Barb Hansen Can you share to me, what happend?, sorry to hear that.. I am sure I'm here to hear it.

[@jaykuya]

Barb Hansen How really sad to lost someone.. But Definitely something and someone out there there make you happy. Life must Go on! and Accept the fact, all of us, will be gone.. For now! let us do what we must.

[@ZANGOJOE]

+Jay Roxas So true. Life goes on even with a bit of emptiness in our hearts.

[@jaykuya]

***** Right Christian.

[@jessicaluney1123]

This was exactly my dad but my dad was worse. I don’t know where I would be today without God. I would have committed suicide by now if it were not for God in my life. I’m so thankful Jesus is in my heart and He saved me ❤️

[@judeproulx4021]

Hello Jessica

[@treasure2behold282]

This was my life with my dad.

[@connergriffin9385]

When?

[@cuomo_project1]

♥️

[@lyndsaywelch2246]

This song hits me on so many levels. My daddy isn't completely in my life. I love him so so much but he's never really been a father figure to me. He missed my high school graduation & didn't wanna be at my wedding (he never said it but I could tell). We barely speak now & it hurts me. When I have children I'll never treat them that way. Daddy I love you, nothing will ever change that. I know we'll never have that close bond & I'll never be a daddy's girl (even though I'm your only daughter). It kills me knowing that, but I guess we were never meant to be close. I'm sorry.

[@tualiseengelbrecht6356]

I sent my dad this, wish me luck! And I hope he gets a better understanding of how his decisions affect me

[@musicxtu921]

Me too

This song definitely goes to my dad. He's gone now and now my daughter is keeping me from this path.

[@jenniferdaly265]

this song is about to make me cry , it has my dad name on it

[@judeproulx4021]

Hello Jennifer

[@Kim-okiepb8h]

One of my favorite songs that he sings! Such a beautiful song that many of us can relate to cuz we have Daddy’s like he describes whether you’re a guy or girl! I haven’t gone around my Daddy is almost 10 yrs now! I just can’t bring myself to be around him when he’s like this & he’s so mean when he’s like this! I took enough abuse from him in my childhood & my adulthood too!!❤️❤️❤️

[@Realbillygilmanmusic]

Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support ❤️😘❣️

This song makes me think of my father. I grew up without him in my life .

[@andrewscoma4468]

Not all alcoholics are like this my late father in law was a hard core alcoholic but was always sober and present and was always willing to help someone out he just had his own demons when alone R.I.P Billy

[@judeproulx4021]

Hello Sherri

[@user-jv3mf1cx7d]

I'm going through substance abuse treatment right now and this was the first song i thought about. it reminded me of how i watched my father go through his addiction (with no help) and how it affected me Tank you for havig the courage to go beyond the limits of normality and include us; the children of addiction; into how life evolves from one aspect to another without your music i wouldntt have been able to cope
