A Song For My Father
Well he's shining his shoesAnd he's combing his black hairHe don't even know I'm thereWatching him get dressedAnd he's reading the morning newsHaving his cup of brewI only see himWhen I'm going to bedBut he's still my dadWell he works in the big big townAnd he's bossing everybody aroundEvery once in a while I come see himWhen we're shopping for clothes to wearEvery once in a while I stop and see himWhen I go downtown to cut my hairWhen he comes home he disappearsBeen acting like that for yearsI only see him when I'm going to bedBut he's still my dadSometimes he seems so tallNot like a dad at allAnd I get so scaredMama come and save me from himSongtexteMama come and save me from himAnd on a SaturdayHe wants to go out and playWe throw the ball aroundAnd he lets me tackle him to the groundThen he turns on the grillAnd he cooks us some foodThen he puts me to sleepMy number one enemyI only see him when I'm going to bedBut he's still my dadOh he's still my dadOh he's still my dad
