Lyrics
FATHER?S DAY
© 2001, 2003 CHASSNER/HARMS
VS. 1
I REMEMBER BACK IN TULSA WHEN I WAS A KIDà
MEMORIES OF DAD AND THE THINGS WE DID-LIKEà
SITTIN? ON HIS SHOULDERS, SO I COULD SEE THE PARADE
HIGH SCHOOL BANDS IN FULL UNIFORMàDOC JENKINS WAVIN FROM HIS MODEL T FORD
YOU COULD SMELL HOT POPCORN, COTTON CANDY, TOO
CHORUS:
OUR LIVES LIVE ON IN MEMORIES, MAKE THE BEST ONES WHILE YOU CAN
MOMENTS IN EACH HOUR, TURN TO YEARS, THEN THEY?RE GONE
DON?T NEED NO REASON-DON?T NEED NO SPECIAL DATE
MAKE IT FATHER?S DAY?EVERY SINGLE DAY
VS.2
NOW I GOT A WIFE AND SON OF MY OWN
THANKFUL FOR THE MEMORIES OF DAYS BACK HOMEà
WANNA GIVE MY BOY, WHAT MY DAD GAVE TO ME
SPENDIN? AFTERNOONS UP AT SPIRIT LAKE
CANE POLES, A COOLER-AND DEVIL?S-FOOD CAKEà
JUST THE TWO OF US FISHIN???TIL THE SUN GOES DOWN
CHORUS:
OUR LIVES LIVE ON IN MEMORIES, MAKE THE BEST ONES WHILE YOU CAN
MOMENTS IN EACH HOUR, TURN TO YEARS, THEN THEY?RE GONE
DON?T NEED NO REASON-DON?T NEED NO SPECIAL DATE
MAKE IT FATHER?S DAY?EVERY SINGLE DAY
BRIDGE:
FATHER?S DAY!?DON?T HAVE TO BE SUNDAY
OR MIDDLE OF JUNE?COULD BE ON MONDAY
MAKE MEMORIES LAST--YOUR WHOLE LIFE THROUGH!
CHORUS
COS, OUR LIVES LIVE ON IN MEMORIES, MAKE THE BEST ONES WHILE YOU CAN
MOMENTS IN EACH HOUR, TURN TO YEARS, THEN THEY?RE GONE
DON?T NEED NO REASON-DON?T NEED NO SPECIAL DATE
MAKE IT FATHER?S DAY?EVERY SINGLE DAY
