Thanks For My Child
THE MONTH OF JULY IS WHAT MY MIND IS ON
THAT 25TH DAY IS WHEN SHE WAS BORN
YES I WAS THERE WHEN SHE CAME OUT
NOT A WORD CAME OUT MY MOUTH
THIS DAY WAS WELL TO COME
I LOOK IN HER FACE AND I GOT NUMB
AT FIRST I THOUGHT I WASNT READY
BUT I WAS PROUD BECAUSE IM HER DADDY
OH YES THIS ONE IS MY CHILD
AS THE YEARS GO BY SHE STILL MAKE ME PROUD
LAUGHTER AND JOY IS WHAT SHE GIVE TO ME
SHE IS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT SHE WOULD BE
WHEN I SAY I LOVE HER I SAY IT LOUD
BUT ALL I HAVE TO SAY RIGHT NOW IS THANKS FOR MY CHILD
