Color Him Father (Remastered 2022)

[00:11.18] There's a man in my house, he's so big and strong
[00:16.33] Goes to work each day and he stays all day long
[00:21.26] Comes home each night lookin' tired and beat
[00:26.20] He sits down at the dinner table and has a bite to eat
[00:31.57] Never a frown, always a smile
[00:36.38] When he says to me, "How's my child?"
[00:41.51] I say that I've been studyin' hard all day in school
[00:46.77] Tryin' very hard to understand the golden rule
[00:51.50] I think I'll color him father
[00:56.55] I think I'll color him love
[01:01.64] I'm gonna color him father
[01:06.65] I think I'll color him love
[01:11.87] He says education is a thing to complete
[01:16.77] Because without it, life just ain't very sweet
[01:21.74] I love this man and I don't know why
[01:27.07] Except I'll need his strength until the day I die
[01:32.07] I think I'll color him father
[01:37.08] I'm gonna color him love
[01:42.13] I've got to color him father
[01:47.23] I think I'll color him love
[01:52.48] Our real old man, he got killed in the war
[01:57.56] Mom and seven kids couldn't have gotten very far
[02:02.52] She said to God she could never love again
[02:07.47] And then, there he stood with that big wide grin
[02:12.43] He married my mother, he took us in
[02:17.66] And now we belong to the man with that big wide grin
[02:22.60] I've got to color him father
[02:27.67] I'm gonna color him love
[02:32.84] I've got to color him father
[02:37.36] Believe I'll color him love
