Nate Sparks - Daddy\'s Shoes lyrics

rate me

When I was young I'd see them down the hall,

It was all I could do.

To put them on my feet so small,

To walk in daddy's shoes.

I wonder if he ever knew,

I even had them on.

Seems like only yesterday, but the years have come and gone.

Chorus:

What I wouldn't do,

To walk in daddy's shoes.

To see what he'd seen,

And know what he knew.

Yea, I'd trade it all away,

To have him come back one day.

What I wouldn't do,

To walk in daddy's shoes.

I took the hard road I always did,

But he stood by my side.

He heard every word I said,

and dried the tears I cried.

I wonder if he ever knew,

How I'm tryin still,

To walk my life inside those shoes,

That seem so hard to fill.

Chorus: x1

Bridge

He told the truth, even when it was hard,

and he always pulled his share.

And if I knew nothin else,

I knew he'd always be there.

Chorus: x1
