(My Father) the Gunner
Hello Father
Have you seen how your children have grown?
You weren't here long enough
For them to really know all about you
And who you really were
Oh Father, the image begins to blur
Samuel Smith was a gunner in the second world war
He was a gambler and he drove a street car
He could sing to break your heart
Samuel Smith was my Dad
Hello Father
Do you see the measure of your men?
I still measure myself against you time and time again
I hope I measure up to you
Oh Father, Father... Dad
Samuel Smith was a gunner in the second world war
He was a gambler and prison guard
He could sing to break your heart
Samuel Smith was my Dad
We love you Dad
Have you seen how your children have grown?
You weren't here long enough
For them to really know all about you
And who you really were
Oh Father, the image begins to blur
Samuel Smith was a gunner in the second world war
He was a gambler and he drove a street car
He could sing to break your heart
Samuel Smith was my Dad
Hello Father
Do you see the measure of your men?
I still measure myself against you time and time again
I hope I measure up to you
Oh Father, Father... Dad
Samuel Smith was a gunner in the second world war
He was a gambler and prison guard
He could sing to break your heart
Samuel Smith was my Dad
We love you Dad
