Rick Jarrard - Daddy's Song lyrics

Years ago, we knew a man He was my mother's biggest fan We used to walk beside the sea And he told me how 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 And when I fell and hurt my knee He would run to comfort me And the pain would go away Years ago, we knew a boy He was his daddy's pride and joy And then his daddy would run away It was such a rainy day That he brought out all his toys And how the mother did explain Trying to take away the pain But he just couldn't understand That his father was not a man And it all was just a game The years have pa**ed and so have I Making it hard for me to cry But if you wanna have a son Let it all be said and done Let the sadness pa** him by
