WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A DAD

Written by Bill Benell (Sung by Bill)

I used to watch my heroes on the big screen
I thought that’s what it’s like to be a man
But that’s before I got to know my daddy
After his second tour in Vietnam
Because he always put the needs of his family
Ahead of any interest that he had.

CHORUS:
That’s what it means to be a dad
What it means to be a man
The toughest job I’ve ever had
You just do the best you can
That’s what it means to love someone
More than words can ever say
And I thank the Lord above
All the time, everyway
For what it means to be a dad

It started when she said, “Dear, you’re a daddy.”
That scared me more than she’ll ever know
I just knew that I wasn’t ready
And it’s not my way to not be in control
But when those tiny little fingers wrapped ‘round my thumb
My whole world came together as I came undone

CHORUS:
