Give Dad A Call Lyrics

What I'd give to give him a call

Tell him 'bout Tennessee in the fall

Talk a little shop, maybe pick his brain

About life and love, or the lack of rain

But sometimes I hear his voice

When the chips are down and I got a choice

to keep my word, or stand my ground

Doing all I know to make him proud

When the fight to keep the faith feels like a brawl

I wish I could give dad a call

Even Jesus Christ himself

Leaned on his paw when he needed help

Lord knows I can't walk on water

So how much more do I need my father?

To lean on

When the waves are tall

When I come up short, though I gave my all

Falling face flat getting up again

When my heart's so broke it just won't mend

And the fight to keep the faith feels like a brawl

I wish I could give dad a call

Oh, I'd sure like to give dad a call
