Color Him Father
There's a man at my house he's so big and strongHe goes to work each day, stays all day longHe comes home each night looking tired and beatHe sits down at the dinner table and has a bite to eatNever a frown always a smileWhen he says to me how's my childI've been studying hard all day in schoolTryin' to understand the golden ruleThink I'll color this man fatherI think I'll color him loveSaid I'm gonna color him fatherI think I'll color the man love, yes I willHe says education is the thing if you want to competeBecause without it son, life ain't very sweetI love this man I don't know whyJexcept I'll need his strength till the day that I dieMy mother loves him and I can tellBy the way she looks at him when he holds my little sister nellI heard her say just the other dayThat if it hadn't been for him she wouldn't have found her wayMy real old man he got killed in the warAnd she knows she and seven kids couldn't of got very farShe said she thought that she could never love againAnd then there he stood with that big wide grinSongtexteHe married my mother and he took us inAnd now we belong to the nman with that big wide grinThink I'll color this man fatherI think I'll color him loveSaid I'm gonna color him fatherI think I'll color the man love, yes I will Aus Songtexte Mania
