My father is a very good man
Very good man i tell you
He works on a ship to pay for the things
That you always bug him for
Oh he's watching the world
He's watching the wheel
He knows that i can see him
He knows he's alright
As he sleeps on his chair
Will i go after him?

My fathers in a very good place
He knows what he wants
He gets it
He sits on a throne
Waving around
Thinks he don't have to see
Oh but i was there
At 22
He came up and he told me
He never wanted anyone
To ever work like him

Yeah he worked on a ship for 70 years
And was not happy for it
He couldn't finish what he began
But he did right by me
My father leaves a very good name
Very complete
He's done it
He sits on his chair
And drinks all his beers
Until he drifts off to sleep
