Chi Lites - Let Me Be The Man My Daddy Was

Chi Lites

Let Me Be The Man My Daddy Was

He's worth more

Than every star in the sky

With that look of forgiveness

That's always in his eyes

He works so hard

But gentle as a lamb

He gave up so much

To make me just what I am and, oh

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

When I was young

Sometimes foolishly I played

But he reached out and, oh

Showed me the way

Now he's only human

And bound to make mistakes

But it was all right

By the moment I would awake and, oh

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

Sometimes I hope

I don't live to see the day

When he reaches down

And take them both away

And look at my children

Sometimes foolishly they play

Let me live long enough

Let me show them the way

My clothes were sometimes untidy

And that bed was never made

But mom and dad would scold me good

Never doubted I've made the grade

But now that I'm a man

I ask the Lord up above

Please let me raise my children right

And be the man my daddy was and, oh

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

He was a good man

He was a poor man

Oh, let me be

Mirror lyrics:

Oh, let me be

He was a poor man

He was a good man

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

And be the man my daddy was and, oh

Please let me raise my children right

I ask the Lord up above

But now that I'm a man

Never doubted I've made the grade

But mom and dad would scold me good

And that bed was never made

My clothes were sometimes untidy

Let me show them the way

Let me live long enough

Sometimes foolishly they play

And look at my children

And take them both away

When he reaches down

I don't live to see the day

Sometimes I hope

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

By the moment I would awake and, oh

But it was all right

And bound to make mistakes

Now he's only human

Showed me the way

But he reached out and, oh

Sometimes foolishly I played

When I was young

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

The man my daddy was

Oh, let me be

To make me just what I am and, oh

He gave up so much

But gentle as a lamb

He works so hard

That's always in his eyes

With that look of forgiveness

Than every star in the sky

He's worth more
