Daddy's Song

Years ago i knew a man

He was my mother's biggest fan

We used to walk beside the sea

And he'd tell how my life would be

When i grew up to be a man

Years ago we used to play

He used to laugh when i ran away

But when i fell and hurt my knee

He used to come and comfort me

And the pain would go away



Years ago i knew a boy

He was his daddy's pride and joy

But when the daddy went away

It was such a rainy day

That he brought out all his toys

Now the momma did explain

Trying to take away the pain

He just couldn't understand

That his father was not a man

And it all was just a game



Years have passed and so have i

Making it hard to cry

And	if and when i have a son

Let it all be said and done

Let all that sadness pass him by
