Fathers are thoughtful people often too little understood
Maybe not getting enough credit as often as they should
Somehow most fathers only seem to be the man who pays the bills
Also fixing up the little cuts and nursing all our ills
Fathers struggle everyday to live up to that image
The protector and provider a hero at the scrimmage
Perhaps that is the reason we sometimes get the notion
That fathers are not the subject of a little thing called emotion
But take a look inside Dad"s heart where no one else can see
I think you will find he is sentimental and as soft as can be
He is so busy everyday in this grueling race we call life
So he leaves the sentimental stuff to his ever loving wife
Fathers are just wonderful in a million different ways
I think they deserve a compliment each and every day
The only reason Dad strives for fortune and success
Is to make his family proud of him and bring them so much happiness
So follow closely your father he is a guardian and a guide
Someone you can always count on and look up to with pride
A man who has beaten the game, sometimes his intentions go astray
I would never call my father by any other name
For I love him more everyday
