Someone to play catch with out in the backyard
To pick up the pieces of your first broken heart
Someone to say slow down when you turn sixteenYeah, I grew up without a dad
I`m gonna be the best one I can be
Someone to scare the monsters
When it`s dark in your room
Someone to put their foot down
When you want a tattoo
And not just say I love you
But show you what it means
Yeah, I grew up without a dad
I`m gonna be the best one I can be
They say dads are supposed to shape you and in a way I guess mine did
I knew what I wouldn`t do if I ever had a kid
They say history repeats itself
Well, I guess that`s up to me
I grew up without a dad
I`m gonna be the best one I can be
Someone to let you fall down and teach you how to get back up
Teach you how to be sweet like mamma and how to be tough
Yeah, I`ll never be perfect
But sure as those lines are pink
Yeah, I grew up without a dad
I`m gonna be the best one I can be
They say dads are supposed to shape you and in a way I guess mine did
I knew what I wouldn`t do if I ever had a kid
They say history repeats itself
Well, I guess that`s up to me
I grew up without a dad
I`m gonna be the best one I can be
Yeah, I can`t change the past
But the past has sure changed me
I grew up without a dad
I`m gonna be the best one I can be
I said I`m gonna be a dad and
I`m gonna be the best one I can be
The best one I can be
Love you, baby girl
