Southside Willy - This Family Lyrics

I always knew I was gonna be a dad
Then when I was, already felt like I had been
It's sad to think so many kids out there
Only exist as a bandage
I always knew I was gonna be a dad
Then when I was, already felt like I had been
I'm glad for the life that we have
And there's nothing but love in this family

My wife is my hero
'Cause she gave us Reuben, and he's the most beautiful boy
I got tears though

I'm fearful
Should anything happen to either
Then I don't know if I could even breathe

I'm thankful
For every minute I spend with him
Even if he's been a handful

Time has a value
Every moment is precious, a blessing
I won't give up more than I have to

I always knew I was gonna be a dad
Then when I was, already felt like I had been
It's sad to think so many kids out there
Only exist as a bandage
I always knew I was gonna be a dad
Then when I was, already felt like I had been
I'm glad for the life that we have
And there's nothing but love in this family

It's worth all the pain
Creating a human, the future is theirs
But it's our last name

Daddy's little princess came
The first baby girl on my mum's side
For something that feels like an age

We know her as Saffy
Short for Savanna, I'll chase any man off
Who makes her unhappy

There's nothing I'm lacking
I've got people I trust who can pick me back up
When I go do my back in

I always knew I was gonna be a dad
Then when I was, already felt like I had been
It's sad to think so many kids out there
Only exist as a bandage
I always knew I was gonna be a dad
Then when I was, already felt like I had been
I'm glad for the life that we have
And there's nothing but love in this family

I always knew I was gonna be a dad
Then when I was, already felt like I had been
It's sad to think so many kids out there
Only exist as a bandage
I always knew I was gonna be a dad
Then when I was, already felt like I had been
I'm glad for the life that we have
And there's nothing but love in this family
