Send "Let Me Be The Man My Daddy Was" ringtone to your cell

He's worth more

Than every star in the sky

With that look of forgiveness

That's always in his eyes

He works so hard

But gentle as a lamb

He gave up so much

To make me just what i am and oh

Oh let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh let me be

The man my daddy was

When i was young

Sometimes foolishly i played

But he reached out and oh

Showed me the way

Now he's only human

And bound to make mistakes

But it was all right

By the moment i would awake and oh

Oh let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh let me be

The man my daddy was

Sometimes i hope

I don't live to see the day

When he reaches down

And take them both away

And look at my children

Sometimes foolishly they play

Let me live long enough

Let me show them the way

My clothes were sometimes untidy

And that bed was never made

But mom and dad would scold me good

Never doubted i've made the grade

But now that i'm a man

I ask the lord up above

Please let me raise my children right

And be the man my daddy was and oh

Oh let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh let me be

The man my daddy was

He was a good man

He was a poor man

Oh let me be
