Chris Bradford - The Salt Man Lyrics

Born in the city, but his soul's on the plains
He's a mountain of a man, no denying his strength
He's got a beautiful beard, rough around the edge
But his heart's full of love, standing tall like a pledge
Underneath that rugged frame, there's a man who knows what's right
He makes salt from the earth, in the dark and in the light
He's got a love for the gridiron, where he used to make his mark
Now he cheers from the stands, with that fire in his heart
He's the Salt Man, with a heart full of pride
The beard of a king, and strength he can't hide
Weekend football, his sweet release
A husband and father, where he finds his peace
He's the salt man
He's got a love for the chargers, they're his Sunday best
Last minute of the game, his heart beats through his chest
And when the trojans take the field, you'll see him stand so tall
In the coliseum's roar, he finds his call
Amazing husband and father, his love is truly rare
He holds his family close, with a strong and tender care
His faith guides every step, with his prayers at night
A man who walks with purpose, always guided by the light
He's the Salt Man, with a heart full of pride
The beard of a king, and strength he can't hide
Weekend football, his sweet release
A husband and father, where he finds his peace
He's the salt man
Back in the day he played, with a fire in his soul
On the football field, his spirit took control
Now he lives in the past, through fantasy football
Reliving his glory, every draft, every fall
Though his body bears the pain, his spirit never fades
Still a mountain of a man, in every word he prays
His life's a living testament, to what a man can be
In every grain of salt he makes, there's strength and dignity
He's the Salt Man, with a heart full of pride
The beard of a king, and strength he can't hide
Weekend football, his sweet release
A husband and father, where he finds his peace
He's the Salt Man, with a heart full of pride
The beard of a king, and strength he can't hide
Weekend football, his sweet release
A husband and father, where he finds his peace
He's the salt man
He's a man of many tales, but his legacy is clear
In every life he's touched, his memory is dear
So here's to the salt man, who's walked a righteous road
A redneck from the city, with a heart of pure gold
He's the Salt Man, with a heart full of pride
The beard of a king, and strength he can't hide
Weekend football, his sweet release
A husband and father, where he finds his peace
He's the salt man
He's the salt man
