Lyrics
0:09He said "Son don't you grow up too fast
0:12Make those days your living last
0:14'Cause one day they'll be gone and past
0:17You wish 'em back again
0:19You only get to have this one
0:22Life is precious and when it's done
0:24It's measured up in love and fun
0:26So enjoy it while you can"
0:29And oh I've seen it all
0:33And I'll be here to catch you before you fall
0:38And oh I've done it all before
0:43You'll get your chance the same you can be sure
0:48Ask me how I know
0:51'Cause my daddy told me so
0:58Mhmm
1:02He said "Money doesn't make the man
1:05Really only hard work can
1:08Build something with your own hands
1:09And see how good it feels
1:12Don't be afraid to make mistakes
1:14But learn from every one you make
1:17And take advice for goodness sake
1:19Don't reinvent the wheel
1:22And oh I've seen it all
1:26And I'll be here to catch you before you fall
1:31And oh I've done it all before
1:36You'll get your chance the same you can be sure
1:41Ask me how I know
1:44'Cause my daddy told me
1:46Women come and women go
1:48Don't rush to marry take it slow
1:50Just let the love between you grow
1:53She'll be your best friend
1:55Find out what your passion is
1:57And follow it long as you live
2:00And teach it to your little kids
2:02And start a family trend
2:06Everything you ever do
2:08Don't leave half done just see it through
2:11'Cause sometimes people measure you
2:13By the promises you keep
2:16Give everyone an equal chance
2:18We come from different circumstance
2:20And always try to lend a hand
2:23When you can help the weak
2:25And oh I've seen it all
2:30And I'll be here to catch you before you fall
2:35And oh I've done it all before
2:40You'll get your chance the same you can be sure
2:44And oh I've seen it all
2:49And I'll be here to catch you before you fall
2:54And oh I've done it all before
2:59You'll get your chance the same you can be sure
3:04Ask me how I know
3:07'Cause my daddy told me so
3:13Mhmm
3:17My daddy told me so
3:23Mhmm
