That's My Job

Dans le style de

Conway Twitty

Paroles

i woke up cryin'
late at night
when i was
very young

i had dreamed
my father
had passed away
and gone
my world revolved
around him
i couldn't lie there
anymore

so i made my way
down the
mirrored hall
and tapped
upon his door

and i said daddy
i'm so afraid
how will i go on
with you
gone that way
don't wanna
cry anymore
so may i stay with you

and he said
that's my job
that's what i do
everything i do
is because of you
to keep you
safe with me
that's my job you see

later we barely
got along
this teenage boy
and he

most of the fights
it seems
were over
different dreams
we each held for me

he wanted
knowledge
and learning
i wanted to fly
out west

i said i could
make it out there
if i just had the fare
i got half
will you loan me
the rest

and i said daddy
i'm so afraid
there's no guarantee
in the plans i've made
and if i should fail
who will pay
my way back home

and he said
that's my job
that's what i do
everything i do
is because of you
to keep you
safe with me
that's my job you see

every person
carves his spot
and fills the hole
with light
and i pray
someday i might
light as bright as he

woke up early
one bright fall day
to spread
the tragic news
after all my travels
i settled down
within a mile or two

i make my livin'
with words and rhyme
and all this tragedy
should go
into my head
and out instead
as bits of poetry

but i say daddy
i'm so afraid
how will i go on
with you
gone this way
how can i come up
with a song
to say i love you

that's my job
that's what i do
everything i do
is because of you
to keep you
safe with me
that's my job you see

everything i do
is because of you
to keep you
safe with me
