Papa Lyrics

I had a man in my family that kept us all true

Wise like an old song iron and metal sharp too

He stood by his lady no blinking or shaking

'Cause he knew it's the right thing to do

Well I hope I'm like you

Now all of his strength is settled from the race

I'm sorry your heart didn't too

Your son is my father he's iron and stronger like you

I hope that your blood was not cut off from us

'Cause I'd love to love iron strong too

I hope I'm like you

I knew a man with a well drawn out plan to live large and wholesome for two

I saw how he crumbled to the doctors and numbers just knowing that his wife's in the room

I'm not strong like you

I had a granddad that taught through the war and it's blues

He left by the morning he always took his darlin love too

I hope that your blood was not cut off from us cause id love to love iron strong too

I hope I'm like you

I had man in my family he kept us all true

He's wise like an old song iron and metal sharp too
