Father's Day
Another year, another Father's day
Too long since mine has passed
Still holding tight the memories
Of the man that I called Dad
He did with me the best he could
Teaching me what he thought was right
Never turn your face my son the evil ways
When it comes to justice stand and fight
Always respect your Mother
Loving her the best you can
And when you see those with little hope
Lift them up with the kind word of friend
Valuable lessons that my Daddy gave
I can't begin to tell
He is with my other Father now
In Heaven where all is well
If I could be half the man my Father was
Remembering all he thought was right
Like being the best Dad for his kids
Then I will have served out well my purpose in life
