You said you love me
Daddy it’s a first
Because you took so long to say it
I’ve always thought the worst

I know I’m a bad child
Left the nest when wasn’t ready
But I fell in love
And couldn’t take it steady

You say alcohols my mistake
But I think it’s my gift
Because normally I ring
And hang up too quick

But with a can or few
I had encouraged myself
And if it wasn’t for your words
I would have ruined my health

Dad now that you love me
I feel its all ok
Maybe one time in the future
Ill come down and stay

And we can laugh together
On I bottle of wine
And just for that day
You’ll be a daddy of mine.
