Papa(1974)

Paul Anka

Everyday my papa would work to help to make ends meet

To see that we would eat,(To) keep those shoes upon my feet

*Every night my papa would take and tuck me in my bed

Kiss me on my head after all my prayers were said

Growing up with him was easy, time just flew on by

The years began to fly.  He aged and so did I

I could tell that mama wasn't well

Papa knew and deep down so did she, so did she

When she died, My papa broke down and cried

All he said was, "God, Why not take me!"

Every night he sat there sleeping in his rocking chair

He never went upstairs.  All because she wasn't there

Then one day my Papa said,

"Son, I'm proud (of) the way you've grown

Make it on your own.  Oh I'll be O.K. alone."

Every time I kiss my childredn, papa's words ring true

"Your childred live through you.

They'll grow and leave you, too"

I remember every word my papa used to say

I live that every day.  He taught me well that way

Repeat * twice

flew on by  시간이 흐르다

broke down  주저 앉아서

ring true  진실되다

could    was able to
