Sam Derry - Daddy's Life Lessons Lyrics

When I was a little boy
My dad And I did played hide and seek
We made the holy book My toy
He then told me the earth is for the meek
Of all the life lessons he taught me
There is one that I will never forget
He said trust in God
Believe in yourself
And be kind to others
Even as yourself yeah
When I remember all your life lessons
That made me the man I am today
I wish that I could see you and say thank you
To you
So as the days go by and by
I still see bright light shine
Through you
And when I close my eyes
I still see you by my side
That's why I love you yeah
Even though I'm a man now
Your words of wisdom
They still light my path
You were my mentor and my hero
You're the best and I mean that's a fact
Everyday is a brand new day
Make the most of it while you still can
Happiness begins in your heart
These were the life lessons that made the man
That made the man
When I remember all your life lessons
That made me the man I am today
I wish that I could see you and say thank you
To you
So as the days go by and by
I still see bright light shine
Through you
And when I close my eyes
I still see you by my side
That's why I love you
Uh uh
Some my folks are getting married
While some folks are just getting laid
(Getting laid) uhhh
I wanna compile a book for my son
For life brighter as the sun
As a gift from you
As a gift from you
So as the days go by and by
I still see bright light shine
Through you
And when I close my eyes
I still see you by my side
That's why I love you
You uuuu uh
