The Man Behind the Man

Lyrics

Under the hat and the open roof Behind the stare stood living proof Of how one man can affect us all Humbly walking yet standing tall He had one purpose, he had one goal He never wavered, from that I'm told The winning was sweet, the losing hard But most important of all was his final reward Seasons came and seasons went But he always seemed content It's common knowledge, from what I've known He never walked alone 'Cause it was only on the field That He made all the calls And the Man behind the man The Man behind the man The Man behind the man is behind us all He stood for right and never changed Work was important but still just a game He took time for kings and kids And didn't take credit for the things he did He left us with the answers he found He didn't push, but passed it around And I'm still touched by the things he said And changed somewhat by the life that he led Seasons came and seasons went But he always seemed content It's common knowledge, from what I've known He never walked alone 'Cause it was only on the field That He made all the calls And the Man behind the man The Man behind the man The Man behind the man is behind us all The Man behind the man is behind us all The Man behind the man is behind us all And the Man behind the man The Man behind the man The Man behind the man is behind us all The Man behind the man is behind us all He stood for right and never changed He's still the same The Man behind the man is behind us all And I'm still touched by the things he said And changed in so many ways By the life that he led The Man behind the man is behind us all Seasons came and seasons went But he always seemed content The Man behind the man is behind us all (Tom Landry): He's behind all of us
