Hush
* * *
Years ago, I knew a man
He was my mother's biggest fan
We used to walk beside the sea
And he told me how life would be
When I grew up to be a man.

And years ago, we used to play
He used to laugh when I ran away
And if I fell and hurt my knee
He would run to comfort me
And the pain would go away

* * *

Years ago, I knew a boy
He was his daddy's pride and joy (pride and joy! )
But when the daddy went away
It was such a rainy day
That he brought out all his toys

And now the mother did explain
Trying to take away the pain
But he just couldn't understand
That his father was not a man
And it all was just a game.

The years have passed and so have I
Making it hard for me to cry
And if we wanna have a son
Let it all be said and done
Let the sadness pass him by

* * *

My old man is a good man
He does the best that he can
My old man is a good man
He does the best that he can
Your old man is not as good as my old man
My old man, he’s a heck of a lot better than your old man
My old man…
