Oh Father, Oh Father
You took me into your hands when i was born
You played ball with me in the backyard lawn
You sang to me, to make me sleep
You gave me everything and i did not weep
Oh Father, Oh Father
But when i was 15, you were strict
And i wanted to break you like a brick
But only when i was one did i realize
You were like that for me to be nice
Oh Father, Oh Father
When you were old, i did frown
But when you died, i did drown
In sadness and grief, And i was blown
Into your memories with me, Now all alone, All alone
Oh Father, Oh Father
