| Forever Proud Copyright 2002: Long Time Coming He falls but never forgets For one day he'll confess The secrets of life that a father lives to reveal And he'll fall time and time again 'Til it works out in the end And his son understands just how the old man feels He never did finish school Still he did what he had to do Those hard working hands were the only tools that he owned And he used them both day and night In the dark and in the light To prove to the world he could give his family a home He's part of a dying breed So few and far between The fathers that give their all 'til the end of time He'll never change his ways And until my dying day I'm forever proud to say my father's mine He's been known to have his fun Still I know when Monday comes He'll rise with the sun and off to work he'll go And I see how tired he gets Still I know he'll never quit For a lesson learned is the only reward he's known Chorus |
