Daddy’s Working Boots
[Verse 1]
My dear hardworking daddy works his life away for us
That's the way that daddy shows to us his love
And daddy's two hardworking hands, they're callous and they're sore
And daddy's working boots have walked a million miles or more
As long as I remember, I remember daddy workin'
Working on the job or either on the farm
Trying to provide for the family that he loves
And daddy's working boots have taken many steps for us
[Chorus]
Daddy's working boots have served as his foundation
Though just like him, they're tired and worn, for years, they've helped him stand
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation
They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man
[Verse 2]
Dear Lord above, I know up there, my daddy's got a mansion
And a great reward that's long been overdue
And when it comes my daddy's time to be with you in heaven
Won't you let him walk your golden streets in a pair of brand new golden boots?
[Chorus]
Daddy's working boots have served as his foundation
Though just like him, they're tired and worn, for years, they've helped him stand
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation
They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man
[Outro]
Daddy's working boots
