Even tho my father never cared enough to even get to know me...this song hits me right in the feelings. So beautiful and pure not many songs have that kind of effect on people, love from the netherlands🇳🇱❤.
If you have kids do yourself a favor and do your best to get to know them.
@@tankerboysabot Great advice!!💯
so sad, this breaks my heart 💔
This song hits the soul.. I lost my dad December of 2020. “Everyone says I look like him, walk like him, sound like him.” Song brings tears every time I hear it and all the great memories of my Dad. God Bless..
Thanks for reminding me to call my dad today and tell him I love him.
Yes I know what you mean. My wife sent this to me and Messenger and she knows that I play the guitar and that not too long go well lost my dad. She knows my dad was a salesman. He was a damn good one! But he always didn't have time for us even though there was six of us. So that part doesn't really fit, but the rest of it fits so well but I had to play a three times this morning. And it brings tears to my eyes each time. But I know he's waiting for me just in the next room and one day I'll be there. And I do love my kids. My daughter just got really mad at me because I was chasing a dream and she felt like it was costing her because I wasn't there even though she is now a full-grown adult giving me three granddaughters and a loving husband. So I had to send it to her too. It's amazing how every once in a while and I was comes out with a song that just touches you right to the bottom of makes you you! It's not something we get over is something we get through which is another song by another artist by the name of Willie Nelson. God bless you
Lost my daddy in Dec. too. Sure do miss him!!🎶💜
Praying for you
Your Mom and Dad and my parents were in the choir at SHBC together for many, many years. Charles left a legacy of integrity and love. Your Mom is pretty special, too! Love this song.
So fun to hear intimate stories! Thanks for sharing
Me too! In choir!
This might be my favorite Walker Hayes song. So powerful.
I agree this has just become my favorite of Walker Hayes songs, it just it’s you right there in the heart. Wow amazing words..!!
l agree with you, indeed Walker Hayes is a great and
talented artist who's songs never goes out of style,
he's one of my favorites artist, he's songs still and
always heals the Soul..
How are you not on every country channel or radio station???? Amazing content and story line. Great harmony….keep it up!
I was a single mom for years, no family around to help and struggled every day for them. I would go to bed crying sometimes feeling like a failure. My kids are in their 20s now and recently my 24 yr old called me up to come talk to him. He said he did the math and realized when I was his age I had a 6 yr old and a 4 yr old and he told me how amazed he is that I was able to give them a good life because he can barely take care of himself. First time my son ever saw me cry. From this parent to you youngsters, please go tell your parents how much you appreciate what they went through for you- they need to hear it!
These songs are such amazing stories. Craig has been on repeat, and you broke up with me, got me through a tough breakup. Your unique and so under rated. I always look forward to hearing you 💕
@Walker Hayes ♪ ughhh I can't even believe you responded, and I am fully going to believe it was you 😂 my daughter and I love you, would love to see you live sometime, come to Wisconsin! We especially love your Instagram, your family is so fun to watch and the love between you and your wife makes me smile. We love you Walker!
Yes, Mr. Walker Hayes. You are, Indeed underrated.
My Dad's birthday yesterday and this song just brought back memories,he worked all the time but he had enough love to give his 11 kids.
Beautiful tribute to his dad. O just lost mine😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just lost mine
Oh Walker, the video makes it even more special. Happy Father’s Day!

Lost my Dad a month ago. This song got to me because I travel for work. I’m gone Monday to Thursday every week. Makes me think about how much more I understood my Dad ever day. Wish I’d have taken the time to talk to him about life.
Walker I 1st heard this song with the still picture of you. ThIs morning I wanted to share it with my coworkers because, your mom and dad touched all of our hearts while he was with us. WELL the video popped up and it was even more special to me. You had me and several of my coworkers in alligator tears!!Your dad was such as great man and he absolutely loved your mom. Beautifully done!!
I lost my dad on my birthday last October... this song brought all the memories flooding back.....
Sorry for your loss.
August1,2010 at 10:01 pm.I remember it today and still miss him dearly.
that suck happy birthday rightism sorry to hear that
Im so sorry for your loss
But happy late birthday
I'm sure chances are slim that Walker Hayes will see or read this message , but I just wanted to say I love your music. This song is my favorite one of yours. It reminds me of my dad. I lost him last year. I bought him a Dean Markley 12 string several years ago for fathers day. He played for me all time when I was growing up. I can't play that well and I would love to give you this guitar just to see you play it in a video. My family and I live in Tullahoma. I know you are around here all the time. I hope one day to run into you ,so I can tell you in person what this means to me.
I Finally got to meet him in person. I shared my story with him as I fought back the tears. He was so nice. He even took a few pictures with me.
❤ wow. What a touching story
Just one hit after another......please keep doing what your doing!!!
Such a beautiful song Walker! Made me teary eyed. My Dad is waiting for me in heaven! Happy Father’s Day!!!❤️🎉🎶

Walker that's such a beautiful song and video! I am crying like a baby because my father is gone too 😢! That's such a wonderful dedication to your dad and somehow I feel that he's loving this song too! Happy Father's Day to you as well!
Yes, Walker! This is the writing that made fall in love with your music (ex. Dad’s Sailboat) More please!
You are so talented, Walker! Your songs are ones that touch the heart!
I adore Walker Hayes and the fact he is such a great husband and daddy. Had no idea he grew up an hour from us. I first wasn't sure what to think about this song the first time I heard it and then I figured it out. He is a lot like his daddy even though he lost his father earlier this year. This is a really powerful song. Walker I think your dad would be so proud of the man you have turned out to be. And you are also a hell of a musician!!!!
Mr. Hayes helped us find two homes here in Mobile. I didn't know him that well, but he made a strong impression on my heart, hated to hear today that he has passed. When I first started hearing your songs about five or six years ago, Walker, I asked if the two of you were related. He smiled and kind of blushed, said, You've heard of my son? He was proud of you and your family, talked about what a good father you are. God Bless!

Lori was perfect to sing with you ❤. What a awesome song. We don't think we will ever become like our parents but as we get older we stop and look at our actions we become very much like our parents. Boy's I like their Dad's and girls like their Moms. Just have to grow up a little and have children of our own to realize how much we really are alike.
Walker this is such a special song. I'm very glad you were able to play it for him before he passed away. I know he is watching down and being so proud of you
Oh wow this song and video made me tear up . Loved it!! I can’t believe I’ve always lived in Mobile and I’m just now discovering you . Binge listening
I was today years old when I discovered Walker Hayes' awesome music! Now I'm bingeing!
Absolutely beautiful. I lost my dad in February to covid 2 weeks before I had my first son, my dad worked so much too because he loved us. Wish he could’ve enjoyed his grandson and modeled the love that was his briefcase life for him. Thank you for writing and sharing such a heartfelt, personal song. I’m sure your father is so proud of you.
So very sorry for your loss
So sorry you lost your dad just before your son was born, Chelsey. I lost my mom 25 years ago this year in the exact same timing. But I console myself knowing that loving well is the best goodbye…
❤️
What a TRIBUTE to his father! The guitar doesn't fall too far from the briefcase...that caught me in my chest! Songwriters like this are special...Paisley, Urban, Stapleton*(rarified air there)....the ability to write summer party anthems, catchy tunes you can't get out of your head and to throw a Christian curveball...we need more of it! Keep God and family in the music you create! I don't go to church, but artists putting theirs into the music I listen to sure makes me feel like I'm there. And I'm grateful 🙏 🥲.

Another great song, Walker. Thanks for making music that makes people feel.
Real life. Such a beautiful song. We all have our parents in us. We don’t realize it nor appreciate it until they are gone. Thank you for those memories.
Wow, I actually cried on this one. This is all dad back in the 70s. I remember I didnt want to see my dad go either. Then 80s came I was 10 He left this world and me alone. I know I let him down 93 when I went to prison when i was 19 for 6 years but I know hes Proud of me now. Especially his Grandson I raised to be an awesome man. This really got me today. Man thank you
Hello I really do appreciate you for being a big fan,thank you for your wonderful comments on my post,it really means a lot to me.I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music
Love your stuff! Sitting here with tears in my eyes.
I know I already commented but I wish I could like this video more than once. This song means so much and really touches my heart. I love you Mr. Hayes. Never stop making music.
Amazing song Walker….Keep Jesus Close🙏🏻 Your Dad would be so proud of you. Watching you grow while you about to finna tell the world about Walker Hayes…Happy for You!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That is absolutely beautiful, had me in tears, but absolutely beautiful!
I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves Walker Hayes, how often do you like listening to his songs?
@@kennysauer2171 daily
@@katielyn31 Nice, it's really interesting knowing you love listening to his songs
I'm from North Carolina and you ?
Walker, when my wife and I first heard you in Grand Forks, ND March 25, 2017 we were in the front row and she was the one in the wheelchair. The way you performed was very unique and we had never seen anything like it before. My wife passed on May 2 of 2017 and my Father passed from a tragic fall in 2019. Your music pulls on the heart strings like (Craig) in a good way and I appreciate you and your inspiration to bring joy to us all. God Bless you.
You sound like a wonderful husband sorry for your loss.
@@marvinabigby6376 Thank you!!
You sir are a strong person, so much loss. Sending you love and light.
So sorry for your losses 💔
I lost my husband 4 years ago & it still hurts as much today as it did the day he passed😢 He passed unexpectedly, way to young (IMO)!
I just heard this song for the first time today. Craig I had heard and I cried thru both of these songs 😭
The wife and I just passed up a chance to see Walker in Chattanooga a few weeks ago, all I knew of his music at the time was Fancy Like and AA. Missing that show is turning into one of my biggest regrets even if it would have meant having to sit through seeing Kane Brown, I guess we could have left before he came on. We should have gone. Call your local radio stations and request they play Walkers other songs besides Fancy Like and AA, though they are great as well, get his other music out there too.
Walker NEVER disappoints!!💯
Great to see Pics of your dad n momma. Your dad sold us our home in Mobile. ♥️♥️
😭 You’re the BEST! Another great song! I think so far, this album is my favorite! 🙌🏻 ❤️Love the videos of you dancing with your daughter…She is gorgeous! Looks like her beautiful Momma!
Happy Father’s Day! 🥳
I'm very pleased to know I'm not the only one that loves Walker Hayes, how often do you like listening to his songs?
this is my favorite Walker Hayes song!! I still barely see my daddy! Sorry he lost his dad recently in June. Prayers going up everyday. My son died when he was 29 & my granddaughter was 6 months old. she is now 6 years old & its not an easy life to live. Lots of tears fall, music was LIFE to him & now its how we heal from losing my heart, my granddaughters DADDY :(...sucks being us somedays but we got this!!!
Walker is such an enigma. He writes songs like this and Craig but gives us trash like Fancy Like.
Fancy like is soooo fun! Go to bed! Lol
He’s absolutely magical !
I'm from Mobile myself and remember seeing his Dad's adds and seeing his Dad in person at an oil change place. The guys there were telling him he could pull his van up into the garage but, he pointed out that it was too tall for the garage. He seemed like a nice man with good common sense. That's amazing to be listening to these awesome songs from his son.😊👍💖
Bless your Dad Walker and you all.🕯❤
My dad always worked too his like a truck driver🥺 his still working..My lil brothers and I would misse him ..now we are grown I'm married I see my husband working everyday and I ask the question that I couldt ask my dad..but we get..Its hard difficult being the man from the house a husband and father.. We are proud of you Husband's ,Fathers and Men of the house 💙👏👏💙... It's not Fathers day but you guy deserve another special day 👏👏👏👏💙..Love the song ❤
This is beautiful…I’m a realtor in Maryland this hits close to home. Blessings 🙏
Actually this song is what i love the most from Country Stuff EP..so happy you Made video for It.💖💖💖💖
Truly no words to express the way this song touches me.

You are so very special. Right to the heart.
If you haven't heard Jimmy Buffett's early stuff, take a listen. His grandfather, a seafarer, was very special to him and influenced him greatly. The Captain &the Kid, Son of a Son of a Sailor, and others may resonate w you.
He is from Mobile and did time in Nashville. Wasn't accepted in Nashville and moved to the Keys and the rest, as they say, is history.
If anyone only knows his commercial stuff about 🍹and 🍔 and 🦈and 🌋, you're missing out on a lot.
Miss you Dad! Forever and always! ❤️💪🏻
This song could not be more beautiful! I love how the voices blend together ❤️ smoothly and well synchronized! The lyrics impeccable 👌 Bravo, bravisimo! Well done!🎉🎉🎉
Amazing song ❤️ Happy Father's Day
Your gonna make me start crying with this song
The picture at 2:43 is how I remember your mom. Your dad was a good man. This song made me cry more than I want to admit! You're amazing Walker!
How u know him? JC tell him I love thesong
WOW! What a song, just love it. Really hits home sometimes.
I love listening to all your songs and watching you dance with your family. All family's should do that! You will be in Iowa in February and just no if I could afford to be there I would! Maybe next time.
Hello I really do appreciate you for being a big fan,thank you for your wonderful comments on my post,it really means a lot to me.I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music
im literally crying rn. just discovered this song today. im a girl but im like the spitting image of my pops. he's in his 60s now, and there was a time that i used to hate him because he was always shouting at my siblings and i, and seemed like he was always mad.
looking back, it was because of how stressful and tiring working is.
i thank God for He had worked in our family. God changed my heart, and eventually, changed my pops. im so thankful for my father's life. He has been a good provider, role model to us and a man of God.
i thank God that my pops is now reaping the blessings.
i know one thing that he is still waiting for is that for us, his children, to finally settle down (get married) and have his grandkids. i hope soon he can also enjoy being a granddad.
I hope that your dad got to hear this before he passed, I really do.
I can relate to this... I hated my dad for being in the military and being away for so much of my childhood. I hated watching the news, every single time he sailed away on the med cruises. Always worried, never knowing if he was safe. Was a simpler, pre-internet world where letters were how we talked to the men serving half a world away. And now I became him, first chasing the flag when I enlisted into the Army. Then marching to the war drums when I fought in round two of his war in Iraq. And now I have my own sons and I get it. I just hope my sons will sometimes understand... and gods willing, I hope they can ignore the war drums and pick a safer profession. Maybe be that realtor or musician.
People tell me daily I remind em of my mom. Miss her so much. 🎶💜🎶
❤️❤️❤️
I miss my dad and lost him in 2007 always cherish your dad
Such a “real life” song. Thanks!
Gosh you never know what you get in his music one min laughing one min crying. His voice is so diverse. And so is his writing. This guy needs to be on the top of the charts. Fancy Like is so fun and still on replay. But his catalog has a lot of different styles. Love its not cookie cutter. And their family is the cutest ever. You are an amazing storyteller. I cant wait for more music.
Wow I just gotten this song on omg damn straight up I get this one ☝️😂😂😂😂😍
Love you walker hayes and family
Great song. Never heard before. Yes re release
My dad was always my hero, even thou he was not the perfect dad! I found alot out as I got older. But he was a good man, even thou my mom did not realize that. I look back at 56 and realized I am alot like him in so many ways. But when I really truly look back he was the briefcase. Love you dad for all you tryed to be. I miss you !!!
Beautiful song and video.
Happy Father’s Day!! And thanks for always making the best tunes!
After listening to this, a second time, I realized what it was about 😢❤😢
Craig is right man! You have a gift. I am so happy that you are now able to share it. Thanks Walker.
I can relate to this song because my dad has a suitcase for work and whenever he picks it up and puts it in his jeep i cry and say "Daddy please don't leave."But yess i lovee this song
Ur old don’t call me that
No leave me alone
My dad hasn’t passed but I’m really close to him and this song reminds me that I need to tell him and my mom both that I love them more than I already do. I get told I’m like my dad a lot so this hits home.
Thank you for that perfect words.
I lost my father two years ago, this song brought tears just remembered him.
Thank you again from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
I’m not crying! You’re crying! 😭😭😭
Omg I'm about to cry! I'm finding all your older songs and they need way more recognition!
Love any of Walkers music
These lyrics!!! Beautiful♥️
Thank you for writing such a beautiful song. I haven’t really have a moment to deal my fathers’ death till I hear your song.
I just came across this song.
I lost my husband June 12th, 2020. He was the best dad to our 3 kids. He worked hard had to travel but always made a point to call or FaceTime the kids and me. When he had to leave for a week at a time and his keys and work boots coming through the door always made us run. He was the best ❤. I see my husband in all of my children and it's like God is showing me he hasn't left me completely. Thank you for this song.
Still love listening to each one of your songs
You are really good singer I loved you from 10 years ago. I'm sure you are a good guy and a great father to your 6 kids & Laney. Keep creating wonderful music please
So heartwarming.
I lost both my mom and dad this year, both Cancer.. this song hit my heart. i could not stop crying. thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and feelings in song with the world.
I love this song so much
@WalkerHayes that's a beautiful song. As my Das worked and not much at home and I heard all the bad things my mom sad. But I get it he made sure his debt was paid and we would not have to suffer. And I look at my dad so differently now as he is 87 and all he sacrifice he wasn't the best at being there. But he was there he was not going to have nothing gevwas going to make sure he had all his kids set up he worked for the future not just living day by day. Sacraf8ce he made. I love my dad today I still hear my mom never satisfied but I see my dad sucome to the fact he can't work outside anymore but is at peace.
I firmly believe that in order for Walker Hayes to become a bonafide star in country music, he will need to release a more personal song like this to radio. He tried that with "Craig" after "You Broke Up With Me," but I think that this is a more radio ready personal song that could actually be a major hit after "Fancy Like" eventually peters out on radio. I love how Hayes has tons of these deeply personal songs, and while this isn't as heartbreaking as some of his more personal ones, it will be the song to make him a true star... that is, if they actually push it to radio.
This makes me emotional asf
Beautiful.
Beautiful song 🫶
Love your music.I wish you enormous success and all the best. Regards from Germany ❤

Walker Hays, thanks for not giving up ….. I’m a different person for listening to your music. I’m a better person for trying to be like Craig…. I’ll tell you that ..!!! Keep doing what your doing brother….. my mom told me “ the greatest work you will ever do will be within the walls of your own home and no amount of success will ever compensate for failure in the home …. Your songs encourage me and lift me and I just want to thank you and Laney ( it’s a team effort ).- Christi Ko
I love this… you have a remarkable ability to show your life wide open in music and it’s beautiful…just beautiful…please keep doing you…and thank you…
love it, it made me cry!!!!!!! good job. happy fathers day!
Ima need that JAWLINE back!🤣🤣😁💚
I spoke with your father one time when I was buying a home . He was the sellers agent. He was incredibly kind and honest. 💗
Probably one of your best songs ever. Very original and well performed. Thank you for doing what you do!
Wow! Just listened to this tonight . What a beautiful song! made me tear up. Well Done Walker
