Color Him Father

There's a man at my house, he's so big and strong He goes to work each day, and he stays all day long He comes home each night looking tired and beat He sits down at the dinner table and has a bite to eat Never a frown always a smile When he says to me, "How's my child?" I said that "I've been studying hard all day in school Tryin' very hard to understand the golden rule" I think I'll color this man father I think I'll color him love I'm gonna color him father I think I'll color him love He says education is a thing to compete Because without it, life just ain't very sweet I love this man and I don't know why Except I'll need his strength until the day that I die I think I'll color him father I'm gonna color him love I go to color him father I think I'll color him love Our real old man he got killed in the war Mom and seven kids couldn't of gotten very far She said she thought she could never love again And then there he stood with that big wide grin He married my mother, he took us in And now we belong to the man with that big wide grin I've got to color this man father I'm gonna color him love I've got to color him father I believe I'll color him...
