As I lay here thinking of a time long ago.
Come sit down with me daddy
we still have a long way too go.
I am young now daddy teach me what I need to know.
I am young still daddy teach me how to grow.
To become the man I know I can be.
Just like you and mommy want to be.
As I lay here thinking of a time long ago.
Come sit down with me daddy,
We still have a long way to go.
I am in my teens now daddy
You still have time to show me how to be a good man.
I'm in my teens now daddy working hard just like you long ago.
Coming home tattered and torn.
As I lay here thinking of a time long ago.
Come sit down with my daddy,
we still have a long way to go.
I'm an adult now daddy,
You still have time to show me how to treat a woman right.
You showed me how while I was watching you and mom.
With the love that you and her shared for one another.
On that one faithful night.
As I lay here thinking of a time long ago.
Come sit down with me daddy,
we still have some time to go.
I'm an old man now daddy,
Wish you were here by myside.
I will always remember with you have taught me.
I promise to pass it on down the line.
As I lay here thinking of a time long ago.
We sit down together now daddy,
watching our family grow.
