From the recording 4 The Radio
Superman is a heartfelt tribute to fathers, hard work, and the everyday heroes who quietly shape our lives through sacrifice, strength, and unconditional love. The song honors a father whose work ethic, wisdom, and steadfast character leave a legacy far greater than words can express.
Through honest storytelling, humor, and deeply personal memories, the song reflects on the lessons passed from one generation to the next—perseverance, humility, gratitude, and the importance of slowing down to appreciate life's greatest blessings. While acknowledging the imperfections that exist in every family, the song celebrates the enduring bond between a father and son and the respect that grows stronger with time.
At its heart, "Superman" is a reminder that true heroes don't wear capes. They lace up worn-out boots, provide for their families, lead by example, and inspire those they love to become the best versions of themselves. It's a timeless tribute to the dads who show up every day and leave a legacy that lasts forever.
Lyrics
Strong as a bull
Stubborn as a mule
Tommy Boy when you walk in the room
Shoutin' out, Whatcha Do
Real life Superman
Always saving the world
Time to sit back, relax and take it slow
Your boots are getting old
You can’t appreciate the harvest
If you never walk the field
Sometimes, I'm a pain in the ass
And get you smokin’ hot mad
I’ll be the first to pat you on the back
And then go ‘head and shake your hand
Your always doing the best you can
Thank you for being my dad
No matter what, you’ll always be my Superman
You'll always be my Superman
Never seen a big man run that fast
Up at the crack of dawn, everyday breakin' your back
More heart than any other man
Born and raised a champion
You're no Georgia peach
Lovin' you is bittersweet
But at your core, down underneath
You always come through, making dreams reality
Time to sit back, relax and take it slow
Your boots are getting old
You can’t appreciate the harvest
If you never walk the field
Sometimes, I'm a pain in the ass
‘And get you smokin’ hot mad
I’ll be the first to pat you on the back
And then go ‘head and shake your hand
Your always doing the best you can
Thank you for being my dad
No matter what, you’ll always be my Superman
You'll always be my Superman
Time for you to take off your boots and feel the grass
Your the hardest-working family man
We can always count on you
To get the job done, my friend
Remember, life goes by too quick
Tell ya twice so you don’t forget
Make sure you take the time
To pull over and watch the sunset
Time to sit back, relax and take it slow
Your boots are getting old
You can’t appreciate the harvest
If you never walk the field
Sometimes, I'm a pain in the ass
And get you smokin’ hot mad
I’ll be the first to pat you on the back
And then go ‘head and shake your hand
Your always doing the best you can
Thank you for being my dad
No matter what, you’ll always be my Superman
You'll always be my Superman
Time to sit back, relax and take it slow
Your boots are getting old
You can’t appreciate the harvest
If you never walk the field
Sometimes, I'm a real pain in the ass
And get you hot smokin’ mad
Thank you for being my dad
No matter what, you’ll always be my Superman
