A Proud Day Lyrics

I remember the day like yesterday

Rushing to the hospital in the fray

Of the night, best part of my life

No way anyone was getting in my way

As I arrived before you did

Something was wrong, you were stubborn

Giving your mom a hard time

You said, nut uh, no way, I think I'll stay

You were there for a while, gave us a scare

As can be, so I listened to your heartbeat

Giving your mom an EKG

You see not everything is peachy easy

Your mom was out, but I was there scared

You weren't breathing as you were upside down

Slapping you, had me in total fear

And tears were coming out of me

Suddenly you began to scream and kick

Cause you didn't like this doctor

But I was never happier to see you

Hearing your first time like a switch

Just then, there was no time to waste

As your mom needed a resuscitate

As I got sent to the waiting room

It was a proud day just a little late

The nurses asked me to name you

An hour later I finally got to see you

So cute and cuddly I was on cloud nine

You didn't even cry, you just yawned like a child

Your mom recovered and came to

I thanked God for the gifts that day

Cause you were perfect and everything was okay

What a relief, it was the best memory

Suddenly you began to scream and kick

Cause you didn't like this doctor

But I was never happier to see you

Hearing your first time like a switch

Just then, there was no time to waste

As your mom needed a resuscitate

As I got sent to the waiting room

It was a proud day just a little late

That was the most special day of my life

Since you were my only one-of-a-kind

How time flys by now you're all grown up from

A proud Dad sitting with you in the palm of my hand
