Hockey Dad Lyrics

We're up early in the morning

Red cup through a drive thrus calling

Sun rises as we drive through town

Always kept the radio down

He worked all week eight to five

Scraping by, on borrowed time

Walking in, he waves hello

Felt like so long ago

When his face was in the stands

A cup of coffee warmin' his hands

Never made any weekend plans

Heart of gold in a humble man

Dedicated to giving back

Yeah, he kept all my stats

He gave me the chance he never had

By being a Hockey Dad

He built a Rink in our backyard

It's where he taught me how to work hard

Dream big is what he would say

I wish we could go back to those days

When his face was in the stands

A cup of coffee warmin' his hands

Never made any weekend plans

Heart of gold in a humble man

Dedicated to giving back

Yeah, he kept all my stats

He gave me the chance he never had

By being a Hockey Dad

If I could call him back

I'd cherish the times that we had

I'd take him to the place

Where he first tied my skates

I'll always see his face was out in the stands

A cup of coffee warmin' his hands

Never made any weekend plans

Heart of gold in a humble man

Dedicated to giving back

Yeah, he kept all my stats

He gave me the chance he never had

By being a Hockey Dad
