There's lots to say about a dad
that's heads above the rest . . .
And when God was making daddys
HE gave us the VERY BEST ~

Hard~working is his middle name
disciplinarian, yes, it's true . . .
With a heart that knows the secrets
of making children's dreams come true ~

Our Daddy's hands are skillful
they possess that "Magic" touch . . .
From building stools & tables
to stuff kids like so much ~

And he taught us by example
to not give up the race . . .
Tread water when ya' just can't swim
and floating's no disgrace ~

He taught us to "bite the bullet"
When pain is just too great . . .
Yet he also offers tenderness
and tears he never will berate ~

We know he isn't perfect
There is only ONE of those . . .
But of all the dads in this old world
We're glad it's him our mother chose ~

Our Daddy could have turned his back
like so many seem to do . . .
But he is heads above the rest
That's why, dear daddy, we love YOU!
