Best Song Daughter Poems
There's a breed of Aussie hero who has served this nation well
and they don a yellow uniform to face the fires of hell.
When day temperatures are soaring and the high winds blow a gust,
and our bushland is ignited it's in them we place our trust.
Yes, you're all somebody's daughter and you're all somebody's son;
you are mothers and you’re fathers. Hard hat heroes everyone.
When their mates are in the hot seat and they need a helping hand,
they will volunteer their services from stations 'cross this land.
Whether country towns or cities or a bush fire brigade;
they will gladly throw their hats in and will offer their mates aide.
Yes, you're all somebody's daughter and you're all somebody's son;
you are mothers and you’re fathers. Hard hat heroes everyone.
Do you owe your home or property, your very lives perhaps,
to the selfless, sincere efforts of these bold fire-fighting chaps?
Or still sadly you lost everything, but proudly can attest
to their fierce determination as each brave soul did their best.
Yes, you're all somebody's daughter and you're all somebody's son;
you are mothers and you’re fathers. Hard hat heroes everyone.
So I ask you all to join me as we stand and raise a glass
to the courage and the spirit of this fire fighting, class;
and I'm sure you'd love to join me as this message we impart,
"You're such true blue hard hat heroes and we thank you from the heart."
Yes, you're all somebody's daughter and you're all somebody's son;
you are mothers and you’re fathers. Hard hat heroes everyone.
d C F F#
Let me hold your little hand
F C d a7
I will show you Neverland
There beneath the redden sky
Captain Hook have lost his pride
And the daring Peter Pan
wins the race with wind again
So let me hold your little hand
We will bury our fears in sands
Golden sands of emerald seas
Right where fairies make our dreams
Carried by a jolly breaker
Helping boys becoming braver
And the girls like you my love
To move the earth with single stroke
So hold my hand while I can
Walk by you towards the end
End of all the fairy tales
Back where dreams begin to faint
And the life goes on and on
Now your children sing this song
So take their hands as I had your
And don’t look back with remorse
d C F F#
I always be there for you
F C B C d
In Neverland where dreams becoming truth
(# move to fifth threshold)
