Verse:

Ridin in the bench seat of that old single cab

Looking up to him thinking,

that’s my dad,

back then I wished I could be tall and strong,

but I was wrong,

about what makes a man,

single mother two kids but he took us in,

now I know I could never be half of him

 

Chorus:

ohh half of him,

if I could be as good as half of him

never have to worry about my children again,

if I could just as good as half of him

single mother two kids but he took us in,

if I could only be as good as half of him,

 

Verse:

working hard every day breaking his back,

never once asking for slack,

packing a lunch and sharing a ride,

until I broke the law I’d broke the law,

I’d never seen him cry,

Taking care of a couple of kids,

That wasn’t even his,

And though we held it against him,

He never treated us different,

So I say this with no conditions,

 

Bridge:

That’s my dad,

Till the day that I die,

That’s my dad,

For the rest of my life,

That’s my dad,

Ohh that’s my dad

And I hope I could as good as half of him

 

Chorus:

ohh half of him,

if I could be as good as half of him

never have to worry about my children again,

if I could just as good as half of him

single mother two kids but he took us in,

if I could only be as good as half of him,
