Eddie

A'ight, Daddy, this is for you

Whoa, Eddie
Whoa, Eddie
Whoa, Eddie
Whoa, Eddie

He was a muscle bound man
With the bible in his hand
He had a whole lotta dreams
And a whole lotta plans

Not a bunch of money
But a whole bunch of love, mmm
But when it came to faith
He had more than enough, mmm

His name is Eddie (whoa, Eddie)
Talking bout a prayin' man he was (whoa, Eddie)
Tried to keep it strong when times got tough (whoa, Eddie)
Thank you for raisin' all of us (whoa, Eddie)
But you just wasn't here long enough

If I could just talk to you one more time
I would tell you I was listenin' all the time
Even when I rolled my eyes, hey
Daddy I knew you was talkin' right

Whoa, Eddie
Talking bout a prayin' man he was (whoa, Eddie)
Tried to keep it strong when times got tough (whoa, Eddie)
Thank you for raisin' all of us (whoa, Eddie)
But you just wasn't here long enough

I remember growing up as a little girl
And watching you pray and watching you go to work
You come home and laugh and play with us
You wasn't too tough to love your girls
And you taught us how to love God
And you taught us how to be strong

And even though you not here no more
I still got you in my heart, daddy (whoa, Eddie)
And I'll never forget what taught me (whoa, Eddie)
I just wanna make you proud
That's all I wanna do (whoa, Eddie)

I wanna be a soldier, just like my daddy (whoa, Eddie)
You was the best daddy, you was the best (whoa, Eddie)
I thank God for you, for the rest of my life (whoa, Eddie)
(Whoa, Eddie)
Oh my god (whoa, Eddie)
