Good Job Being Pa
I knew a man they called him Jim
I knew him since I was a kid
He fell in love with Ma
He had such grace and charm
I just wanted him as Pa
We grew up in a house that's old
He'd fix the things that would not hold
I watched him as he patched
The thing's that would not last
He got us by without a scratch
I got to thank you for the things you have done
The love and strength that you gave to Ma
I know it was not easy
It was hard to be pleasing
You did a good job being Pa
I know we never really talked
We did not share our deeper thought's
You gave me so much more
Then what I bargained for
Your actions always said it all
I got to thank you for the things you have done
The love and strength that you gave to Ma
I know it was not easy
It was hard to be pleasing
You did a good job being Pa
I find myself wearin' your shoes
By all the thing's that I fix too
I realize all you taught me
And how far you have brought me
It was your way of being Pa
I knew him since I was a kid
He fell in love with Ma
He had such grace and charm
I just wanted him as Pa
We grew up in a house that's old
He'd fix the things that would not hold
I watched him as he patched
The thing's that would not last
He got us by without a scratch
I got to thank you for the things you have done
The love and strength that you gave to Ma
I know it was not easy
It was hard to be pleasing
You did a good job being Pa
I know we never really talked
We did not share our deeper thought's
You gave me so much more
Then what I bargained for
Your actions always said it all
I got to thank you for the things you have done
The love and strength that you gave to Ma
I know it was not easy
It was hard to be pleasing
You did a good job being Pa
I find myself wearin' your shoes
By all the thing's that I fix too
I realize all you taught me
And how far you have brought me
It was your way of being Pa
