Paul Petersen - My Dad

Lyrics

He isn't much in the eyes of the world; He'll never make history.

No, he isn't much in the eyes of the world, But he is the world to me.

My dad, now here is a man.

To me he is ev'rything strong; no he can't do wrong, my dad.

My dad, now he understands when I bring him troubles to share;

Oh, he's always there, my dad.

When I was small I felt ten feet tall.

When I walked by his side

And ev'ry one would say, "that's his son,"

and my heart would burst with pride.

My dad, oh, I love him so,

And I only hope that some day my own son will say,

"My dad, now here is a man."

My dad, now here is a man.

To me he is ev'rything strong; no he can't do wrong, my dad.

My dad, now he understands when I bring him troubles to share;

Oh, he's always there, my dad.

When I was small I felt ten feet tall.

When I walked by his side

And ev'ry one would say, "that's his son,"

and my heart would burst with pride.

My dad, oh, I love him so,

And I only hope that some day my own son will say,
