Thanks Anyway Dad

my pops used to say, "hey,boo, just be you"

and you will succeed in all that you do

now I believe that he pulled my leg

a people pleaser is all that made

yeah, he meant well and he loved me so

and he stood by me where ever I'd go

encouraging me, he led by example

the perfect dad and outstanding grandpa

but I wish he'd done better, toughened me up more

he had no idea what he set me up for

cause NO-ONE can love you as much as your dad

and most folks can't and don't see you like that

so I wish I would have ignored his advice

and tried a little less when playing nice
