Bein' a Dad

So much for picking up when we want to and just going

No more drop of a hat packing a back and getting gone

Ain't had a chance to sleep in since I don't know when

Goodbye to thinking you the only one in the world, worth holding on to

Even if I could I wouldn't change a thing

'Cause God I love bein' a Dad

♪

These hand prints and these drawings on the walls in the halls can drive me crazy

Gotta keep anything that means anything way out of reach

That brand new bike is laying out there in the yard and it's raining

I tell them over and over and over

But they don't practice what I preach

I tried to, but I can't stay mad

Oh man, I love bein' a Dad

It keeps me young, it takes me back

It makes me cry, it makes me laugh

It's what I do, it's why I breath

My flesh and blood, my legacy

It's the hardest and most rewarding job I've ever had

Ain't nothing like bein' a Dad

We got these old training wheels we don't know what to do with

Before we know it they'll outgrow those bikes in the yard

And just like that they'll be driving like there's nothing to it

We'll help them pack and wave goodbye as they leave in their new used car

I guess we'll get our old lives back, but I ain't looking forward to that

'Cause, man, I love bein' a Dad

It keeps me young, it takes me back

It makes me cry, it makes me laugh

It's what I do, it's why I breath

My flesh and blood, my legacy

It's the hardest and most rewarding job I've ever had

God, I love bein' a Dad
