Born tough but love made you stronger
During the hard times you held on longer
Life tried to pull your kin apart
But nothing can break when you all have heart
Steady hands with a sharp eye watching
Stopped rabbits and foxes on farms robbing
Drilled down bored deep ran toward the fires heat
Then kept the peace on country streets
From the bait shop to the corner store
You make a friend just walking through the door
You've got a tale for everyone
Yeah the talk don't stop when you've begun
They call you Have-a-Chat
Cause you never turn away
A stranger's just a friend
Who don't yet know your name
Standing strong for the ones you love
A heart as big as the sky above
Yeah the world's a better place
Cause of the man you are today
Sun comes up you're on the green
Locked in eyes sharp and keen
Ain't just playing you play to win
Stacking trophies sinking them in
To family to laughter to stories well told
To a man with a heart worth more than gold
Sixty plus years standing by her side
Your hand in hers through every tide
Through every storm through every trial
You kept your word you kept that smile
From the bait shop to the corner store
You make a friend just walking through the door
You've got a tale for everyone
Yeah the talk don't stop when you've begun
They call you Have-a-Chat
Cause you never turn away
A stranger's just a friend who don't yet know your name
Eighteen holes you take your time
But when it counts you cross that line
Yeah the world's a better place
Cause of the man you are today
So here's to you on this special day
For all the love you give away
We're lucky just to know a man like that
Yeah here's to you Have-a-Chat
Raise a glass let the laughter flow
To a legend we're all proud to know
Yes we all love you Have-a-Chat
We all do
