Daddy's Creed

When life tries to knock me down

And I don’t see no way out

My faith has been shaken

The world has been taken

From underneath my feet

When the tears well up in my eyes

And I think about throwing the fight

A voice comes up from the past

Saying buck it up girl

You gotta kick some ass!

My daddy taught me don’t

Let ‘em see you sweat

Or get into your head

Stand tall with your head held high

If you want something done

Don’t wait for some one to run

And do it all for you

Use your own two hands

Make your own damn plans

That’s my daddy’s creed

Oh I believe

It didn’t seem that long ago

I was just a young girl

The world filled with unknowns

Learning about disappointment

Getting stopped in my tracks

That’s when I learned those lessons

That’ll always have my back

My daddy taught me don’t

Let ‘em see you sweat

Or get into your head

Stand tall with your head held high

If you want something done

Don’t wait for some one to run

And do it all for you

Use your own two hands

Make your own damn plans

That’s my daddy’s creed

Oh I believe

So when I’m feeling low

Ain’t got nowhere to go

I know better

Have braved through harder weathers

Cause a voice from the past

Always comes back

And I gotta thank my Dad

My daddy taught me don’t

Let ‘em see you sweat

Or get into your head

Stand tall with your head held high

If you want something done

Don’t wait for some one to run

And do it all for you

Use your own two hands

Make your own damn plans

That’s my daddy’s creed

Oh I believe

Oh I believe

Oh I believe

Oh I believe!
