Dad

An early riser, always-on-timer
 A back breaker, giver not a taker
 Made sure nothin' was missin'
 So we could have everything you didn't
 A patient teacher, strong steady leader
 Firm hand shaker, never meet a stranger
 Tough as steel, heart of gold
 It took a while, but now I know
 All the little life lessons
 But you never expected
 A thank you, a pat on the back
 You did what you did, no questions asked
 I could say never enough through the downs and the ups
 You carried the weight so we'd have a good life
 Raised us with love
 So we could fly
 Anyone else would call you Superman
 But I just call you Dad
 ♪
 A spirit lifter, problem fixer
 Words of reason
 There when you need 'em
 Calm you down, set you straight
 Yeah, I appreciate
 All the little life lessons
 But you never expected
 A thank you, a pat on the back
 You did what you did
 No questions asked
 I could never say enough through the downs and the ups
 You carried the weight so we'd have a good life
 Raised us with love so we could fly
 Anyone else would call you Superman
 But I just call you Dad
 ♪
 I just call you when I'm lost
 When I'm empty
 When I need a little help
 Whenever I get good news
 You're the first one I wanna tell
 So I wanna thank you
 Give you a pat on the back
 For doin' what you did, no questions asked
 I could never say enough through the downs and the ups
 You carried the weight so we'd have a good life
 Raised us with love so we could fly
 Anyone else would call you Superman
 And I am the man that I am
 Because I call you Dad
