“My Dad”

He isn’t much in the eyes of world
He’ll never make history
No, he isn’t much in the eyes of the world
But he is the world to me

My dad
Now here is a man
To me, he is everything strong
No, he can’t do wrong
My dad

My dad
Now he understands
When I bring him troubles to share
Oh, he’s always there
My dad

When I was small, I felt ten feet tall
When I walked by his side
And everyone would say, “That’s his son”
And my heart would burst with pride

My dad
Oh, I love him so
And I only hope that someday
My own son will say
My dad
Now here is a man
