My Daddy

When I was a little child,
he'd comfort me when the storm was loud.
That's what my daddy did for me.
He taught me about the golden rule.
He'd check on my friends that I made at school.
That's what my daddy did for me,
They don't make them like my dad anymore.
I know you've heard that said before.
But me and mama, we both agree.
God must have had a special plan.
To send us such a special man.
That's what my daddy did for me.
When our country went to war, 
he volunteered like he did before.
That's what my daddy did for me.
He said they evil must be kept away.
So we be free to live and pray.
That's what my daddy did for me.
They don't make them like my dad anymore.
I know you've heard that said before.
But me and mama, we both agree.
God must have had a special plan.
To send us such a special man.
That's what my daddy did for me.
Now when I think we're apart.
I realize he's part of my heart,
That's what my daddy did for me.
When I'm speaking with my child.
I hear him, and it makes me smile.
That's what my daddy did for me.
They don't make them like my dad anymore.
I know you've heard that said before.
But me and mama, we both agree.
God must have had a special plan.
To send us such a special man.
That's what my daddy did for me.
