We laid my dad to rest Tuesday afternoon (August 13th, 2024). He was 95. This song has been on my mind a lot over this past year, as he started to decline both physically and mentally. I thought about our "walk" - him sending me off to school the first time, and then my going into the Army (Dad had served in both the Navy 1945-1947 and then the Army 1949-1953). Then the last walk we'd take together, as I helped carry his flag-draped casket. Love you, Dad.
Sorry for your loss. Sounds like you had a great ol man! Beautiful song about the cycle of life. You are not alone, we all have to go though this, hang in there.
Soak up every minute…I remember back in 1987being the age of 18 and seeing my Dad and his brothers, sisters, Great Aunts and Uncles, gathering together while my Grampa passed…and it hit me hard…like a reality flash…if I live I will soon be here doing the same thing when my Ole Man hits the end of his chapter….I’m in my 50’s now…the family is spread all over …no bro’s or sister’s, aunts or uncles to support me during this time…He’s close to 90…things are closing…and yes this song hits home…if you can…reach out to all..I pray they are there for you…if not…humbly make the calls, so maybe they reflect on how it used to be, and at least can tell you how Proud they are that at Least Your There…where they should, or hopefully Want to be. God Bless, Chin up, I pray you know in your heart…your right where you should be👊❤️👊
Prayers for your family. It's just hard. It's been 3 years since I had to leave my dad at the hospital. Just let him know you're there and you love him. That's all you can do.
@@teresariley5070 prayers to you…im 54…looking at what I can only hope isn’t my future…and that’s hard to say…when I look at the man I’ve strived so many years to be worthy of…I hear You….Stay Strong, Learn , Feel and be there…your winning in reality..a true view…and it isn’t easy.l❤️👊❤️
My granddad raised me and my brother and sister. I remember him talking me into going to school the first day and I was scared and I remember getting married and I was scared sipping on my own but he was there. He died a year ago today. He taught me so much in his time, he died 98. And being 38 now I can’t imagine not having them all my life. He was my hero, the man of my life and I’ll never forget him for that.
Cherish him. My dad left when I was but luckily my grandpal filled his shoes as a role model. I lost him in 2019 at the age 90 but he looked and acted like he was 50. Nothing could take him except Cancer in 3 months time. 😭😭
My dad just passed away yesterday. One thing I can say about him is he never lied to me no mater how painful. He tried to lead me in the right way but I was stubborn at a young age. Funny how that works. We know it all at 15. But he was right about everything. I miss him terribly
God, When they are gone this song kills me now. Never understanding the lyrics when he was alive and we were young. I would give ALL the money in the world to have one more day with Dad/Mom!#(R.I.P.)#Daddy#Mama#😢
My mom has been my mom and dad for the last 55 years after my dad died when I was 12 years old. I just recently took that walk with her to the assisted living facility when her dementia got so bad that I needed help taking care of her. Hardest walk this old Marine ever had to take.
My son is fixing to be a Dad in September. Guess what that makes me? Someone grandpa 👴. An update my grandson came a month early 4lbs 12oz. And very handsome young man.
32 years ago, I took that walk with my Dad-the tears flow when I hear this wondrous song of life. When you are young you really have little to no clue what a wish really is!!
My dad died when I was a baby after he lost my momma. My godfather step into his shoes. He has been there for me at the milestones in my life. I love my dad and my godfather had his own family but his the closest thing I had. An if I loss him I'll be heart broken.
This is just how it goes. The old man won’t be here forever. I can promise you that the day it’s over there is much you wish you would have said. Say it now.
We laid my dad to rest in 2016, nobody fully recovered since his passing and my brother hasn’t been himself since the day he died. This song makes me think of my kids
This song hits different when you've lost your daddy. Lost my daddy August 11, 2013 and i miss him every single day. He was only 58 and i was 29. I got pregnant with his first grandchild four months after he passed and it hurts to this day that he never got to meet his granddaughter. He would have loved her. 😢😢 She was born that next year in August the same month he passed. August is always bittersweet because its my girls birthday month and the month he passed. I had one of the best Daddy's a girl could ask for.
41 year old man, crying like baby. This beautiful thing we call life. The saddest part of it all is there’s just never enough time to do it the way we both wish it we could’ve. All I can do is try to make it go as slow as possible with my son. I love you, dad. There’s never been a man that holds, even a close second to you. Never will be either.
My dad wasn't a good one when alive, but this song still makes me lose a few tears for him. They don't make music like this anymore. It causes a hurt inside that we all appreciate.
That’s a bit different twist in the video than the way I saw the original song in my mind but I like it! My dad has been able to not only see his kids and grandkids grow grandkids but now his great grandkids growing up and it is a true blessing! He imparts untold wisdom that they will always remember for them and me! One of my favorite songs of all time. Thank you guys for releasing this.
My late father passed away years ago, but he is a Vietnam veteran.. War is so hard and scary to go through.. Life can be so unfair and difficult to get through. 😥 But it does have it's great moments, even if they're hard to see at the time. ☺
Here is a good one to dedicate to him. It's called "Daddy Never Was The Cadillac Kind" by Confederate Railroad th-cam.com/video/v5R-T_YF-wU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=eyt7oOaA6JKaPgLC
This has always hit me hard im and iraq combat vet come from a long family history of military dealing with my dad loosing his mind from brain cancer this is us completely
Has ... Has this always been the video for this song? I could swear I've watched it many times but i have a totally different storyline in my memory. Maybe that one's just my version, lol.
Laid my Mom to rest last year, and a few days ago I lost my father. He was 75 and a retired military vet....literally was accepted by MEPS yesterday...and all I could think about was how he did the same thing over 50 years ago. I wish I'd have had the chance to tell him....I was worried that I was too old.
This song breaks my heart. I lost my fiancé in December 2023. He left behind his 10 year old son. I adore him. After all this time he is my own son. My fiancé lost his own father at 3 months old to suicide. He never ever wanted to leave his son. I will do everything in my power to be there for his son and let hin know how much his daddy loved him. I lost my own father at 12. But the bond between father and son is irreplaceable. I cherish my relationship with him and will be here for him no matter what. I always promised my hunny i would take care of him. He might as well be my own child. This song just means so much. ❤
"Who are they ordering to fight for "Them"? I, for One, will not fight for any Corporation that will allow another Corporation to arrest me for walking.
My dad turned out to be a dick…but I still love the guy. I’ve turned out to be twice the man he ever was, and still I’m proud of my last name? 40 years old and still confused! Will my dad ever be my parent?

Sorry for your loss. Be thankful for what you had. My dad was there but he never wanted me and my sister.

😢 so sorry for your loss❤
I loved my dad he was a marine 1925
Reminds me of when I had to carry my dad to the car and take him to the hospital. He never came back home. Chokes me up every time. Miss you dad 😢
This one hits a little too close to home today. I'm sitting in the hospital with my dad, wondering what comes next.
Enjoy the time and God bless your family. ❤

One of the best songs ever written.
I never realized how much I love my Daddy. Till I look back and now He is with God 🙏. I love you Daddy you where the greatest.❤️
I miss the times fishing with my Dad. I love hearing this song!❤😂❤😂

My dad is 91 and in failing health. This song brings so many tears.
Cherish him. My dad left when I was but luckily my grandpal filled his shoes as a role model. I lost him in 2019 at the age 90 but he looked and acted like he was 50. Nothing could take him except Cancer in 3 months time. 😭😭
My father died last Monday. This was the only song that I pushed hard for. It says everything about a father and son's relationship.
😢 so sorry about your dad
@brittanymcgregor6710 Thank you Brittany. I do appreciate that.

Dementia is one ornery son of a bitch that needs a cure created.

This song makes me cry everytime I hear it I lost my daddy this October 30th will make two years 💔 😢 I was daddy girl it hurts so bad
Im sorry for everyone who has lost someone close to them. They are your guardian angels. Just like my mom and dad are.
My dad died when I was a baby after he lost my momma. My godfather step into his shoes. He has been there for me at the milestones in my life. I love my dad and my godfather had his own family but his the closest thing I had. An if I loss him I'll be heart broken.
I remember time spent with my dad. I give everything I have to go back, just one more day to spend time with him.
Hands down the hardest-hitting song SB ever did. I felt it then, I feel it now.
This song still makes me cry, my Dad was a great person. We buried him before having to take the walk. He went fast but it still hurts 5 yrs later
They don't make them like this anymore
This is just how it goes. The old man won’t be here forever. I can promise you that the day it’s over there is much you wish you would have said. Say it now.
Goddamn song made me cry 30+ years ago and still does.
It's just exactly what I needed today. Tears running down my face trying to be strong.
My dad was never there. But I do for it for my kids. Hurts. I don't wanna let em go. Go I gotta
We laid my dad to rest in 2016, nobody fully recovered since his passing and my brother hasn’t been himself since the day he died. This song makes me think of my kids

Can't believe it's been over 10 years since I played this song at my dad's memorial. Some day my sons will play this at mine.
41 year old man, crying like baby.

Thank you Sawyer Brown for bringing tears to my eyes after all the years. Truly beautiful. ❤
Rest in peace Joe the oak ridge boys were one of the greatest band of all time
Songs like this are good for emotional out burst especially if your a man and need to cry for whatever reason
I agree
I have loved this song for years.
Great song and even greater memories. I lost my daddy nine years ago and this hits to my core.
Love Sawyer Brown! I remember when they won Star Search with Ed McMahon!
I am glad to see this video back on TH-cam!!!!
My dad wasn't a good one when alive, but this song still makes me lose a few tears for him. They don't make music like this anymore. It causes a hurt inside that we all appreciate.

Too loud for a ballad. Not enough variance in levels. Kick is too punchy. Official, yea right.
Then it's probably best no one takes your musical opinion anymore serious then a blind man's painting!
