Father's Day

I haven't always been a single man

And I haven't always lived up here

Along with all these other single men

With a ring around the bath and a cigarette butt in my beer

And I haven't always been a lonely man

And I haven't always lived alone

And you know I haven't always drunk this much

But hey before you cut me down

Just try standing in my shoes

'Cause I don't have to hear one word of this, no

On any other day, I might care what you say

But every Saturday is Father's Day

And you might call it sad

You may call me mad

But I've got one who calls me Dad

And all the other blokes that live up here

Know how to leave a man alone

They're not a bad old bunch that live up here

Ah, but you know that it's not family and it's not home

What of a darling wife that once I had?

Well I'm pleased to say that she still talks to me

But I try not to think of what went wrong

'Cause if I say that I was right

She might say that she was right

And the only rights I care about are visiting rights

And any other day, I might care what you say

But every Saturday is Father's Day

You might call it sad

You may call me mad

But I've got one who calls me Dad

We go where he wants to go

We do what he wants to do

I tell him everything I know

'Cause I'd do anything to prove

Yeah, I'd do anything to prove

That every Saturday, I will do just what he says

'Cause every single Saturday is Father's Day

And you might call it sad

You might call me mad

But it don't feel so bad, when he calls me

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But it don't feel half bad, when he calls me

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But God I feel so great, when he calls me Dad

Yeah, he calls me Dad

I haven't always been a single man
