Father of mine
Tell me where you have been
You know I just closed by eyes
My whole world disappeared
-
Father of mine
Take me back to the day
Yeah when I was still your golden boy
Back before you went away
-
I remember blue skies
Walking the block
I loved it when you held me high
I loved to hear you talk
You would take me to the movie
You would take me to the beach
You would take me to a place inside
That's so hard to reach
Oh
-
Father of mine
Tell me where you went
Yeah you had the whole world inside your hand
But you did not seem to know
-
Father of mine
Tell me what you see
When you look back at your wasted life
And you don't see me
-
I was ten years old
Doing all that I could
It wasn't easy for me
To be a scared white boy
In a black neighborhood
Sometimes you would send me a birthday card
With a five dollar bill
I never understood you then
And I guess I never will
-
Daddy gave me a name
My daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My daddy he gave me a name
-
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
-
Daddy gave me a name
Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My daddy gave me a name
-
Yeah
Yeah
Oh yeah
-
Father of mine
Tell me where you have been
I just closed by eyes
And the world disappeared
-
Father of mine
Tell me how you sleep
With the children you abandoned
And the wife I saw you beat
-
I will never be safe
I will never be sane
I will always be weird inside
I will always be lame
Now I am a grown man
With a child of my own
And I swear I'll never let her know
All the pain I have known
-
Then he walked away
Daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
My daddy gave me a name
Then he walked away
Then he walked away
Then he walked away
