Karaoké Papa Paul Anka

Every day my papa would work to help to make ends meet

To see that we would eat

Keep those shoes upon our feet

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

Kiss me on my head after all the prayers were said

Growin' 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

Papa broke down and cried

All he said was God why not take me

Every night he sat there sleepin' in his rockin' chair

He never went upstairs all because she wasn't there

Then one day my father said

Son I'm proud the way you've grown

Make it on your own

I'll be okay alone

Every time I kiss my children

Papa's words ring true

If children live through you they grow and make it too

I remember every word my papa used to say

I live them every day

He taught me well that way

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

Kiss me on my head

That's when my prayers were said

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

Kiss me on my head

That's when my prayers were said
