_ _ _ Every day my papa would work [Abm] to fry the meat and sweet [Bb] to see that we would eat.
[Ebm] He'd throw shoes upon my feet.
Every night my papa would take [Abm] me, tuck me in my bed, [Bb] kiss me on my head [Ebm] after all my prayers were said.
_ [B] _ [Db] There were years [Bb] of sadness [Ebm] and of tears.
[B] Through it all [Db] together [Gb] we were strong, [Bb] we were strong.
[B] The [Db] times were rough, [Dm] but mama [Ebm] he was tough [B] and mama she [Abm] stood beside him [Bb] all along.
_ _ [Ebm] Growing up with them was [Abm] easy, time just flew on by.
[Bb] The years began to fly, [Ebm] they aged, but so did I.
[B] I [Db] could tell [Bb]
mama [Ebm] wasn't well [B] and papa knew [Db] and deep down [Gb] so did she, [Bb] so did she.
[B] And [Db] when she died [Bb]
papa broke [Ebm] down and he cried.
[B] They could [Abm] say it was God why [Bb] her take me.
_ _ [Ebm] Every day he sat there [Abm] sleeping in his rocking chair.
[Bb] He never went upstairs [Ebm] cause she wasn't there.
_ Then one day my papa said, son I'm [Abm] proud of how you've grown.
[Bb] He said go make it on your own [Ebm] and don't worry I'm okay alone.
He said there are things you must [Abm] do, places you must see.
[Bb] His eyes were sad as he, [Ebm] as he said goodbye to me.
Every time I kiss my [Abm] children papa's words ring true.
[Bb] He said your children they live through you [Ebm] and they grow, they leave you too.
I remember every [Abm] word my papa used to say.
[Bb] I kiss my kids and I pray [Ebm] that they'll be, they could be that way [Ab] _ _ [Ebm] _
someday.
