--MY DADDY-- You were the strength of my existance My guide at that young age. You tried to be my teacher My father-and my sage. You brushed the dirt off of my knees And checked the bruises there And taught me to express myself In a way that would be fair. You taught me things to sustain me Through every step of life You tried to always protect me And hide all kinds of strife. You made your daughter strong enough To face each problem here That's why, I'll always love you, Thank You, My Daddy dear.
