[Verse 1]
Growin' up, there wasn’t much my daddy couldn't fix
If it wouldn't work, he’d make the old look new again
The house, the fence, the bike, the car
The little girl tears from a broken heart

[Chorus]
Daddy set the bar real high
Showed me what a real man looks like
It's gonna take one to fill those shoes
In his eyes, nothin' less will do
He's gotta be a man of God
Keep it tight when he ties that knot
Lucky as a girl's ever gonna get
To love a man that's half the man that my daddy is

[Verse 2]
It's never gonna fly if he's the kinda guy that doesn’t fish
He better keep his word, ain’t afraid to work, and knows who he is
Strong with his hands, gentle with his touch
And no such thing as lovin' me too much

[Chorus]
Daddy set the bar real high
Showed me what a real man looks like
It’s gonna take one to fill those shoes
In his eyes, nothin' less will do
He's gotta be a man of God
Keep it tight when he ties that knot
Lucky as a girl's ever gonna get
To love a man that’s half the man that my daddy is
[Bridge]
A man of few words, a man who leads
The man he is is who he wants for me

[Chorus]
Daddy set the bar real high
Showed me what a real man looks like
It's gonna take one to fill those shoes
In his eyes, nothin' less will do
He's gotta be a man of God
Keep it tight when he ties that knot
Lucky as a girl's ever gonna get
To love a man that's half the man that my daddy is

[Outro]
To find a man that's half the man that my daddy is
