Father Lyrics

A bit of land, four walls of stone

A family of twelve in a three bedroom home

Far too poor to be given much

Just love enough

When seas get rough

I quickly grew up and got married

A loving wife at home with three mouths to feed

Nails to the bone I'll break my back

So they can have

What I never had

These four walls sing

Of humble beginnings

From roots so deep in love it grew

Every day, every night, always giving my best

Every hand held, tear wiped, need that was met

Each day I do all I can do

To always be there for you

I'll put your lives above my own

I'll give you love I wasn't shown

You will never walk alone

And when life is pulling you in every direction

I'll be there guiding back you home

These four walls sing

Of humble beginnings

From roots so deep in love it grew

Every day, every night, always giving my best

Every hand held, tear wiped, need that was met

Each day I do all I can do

To always be there for you
