Daddy’s Song Lyrics by Sean Nelson

Nelson Sings Nilsson

2019

Years ago, I knew a man
He was my mother's biggest fan
We used to walk beside the sea
And he told me how life would be
When I grew up to be a man
Years ago, we used to play
He used to laugh when I ran away
And when I fell and hurt my knee
He would run to comfort me
And the pain would go away
Years ago, I knew a boy
He was his daddy's pride and joy
But when the daddy went away
It was such a rainy day
That he brought out all his toys
Now the mama did explain
Trying to take away the pain
But he just couldn't understand
That his father was not a man
And it all was just a game
Years have passed and so have I
Making it hard for me to cry
And if and when I have a son
Let it all be said and done
Let the sadness pass him by
My old man is a good man, he does the best that he can
My old man is a good man, he does the best that he can
