" MY FATHER," 3/4, LYRICS/MELODY BY LOLO BOMBOY (No. 17) JUNE 16, 2013

LYRICS:
- 
My father was kind
And a loving man
He did my homework
When I was still young
He made me drawings
Which were very nice
So my teachers thought
An artist I was
-
He was a man too
Who feared God so much
He'd take me to mass
Much to my dislike
He'd wake me from sleep
And would dress me up
And so to the church
So early we'd march
-
And though he was mild
His firmness showed too
He didn't spare the rod
When wrongs I would do
But he'd be the one
To comfort me too
Who'd dry all the tears
From crying I'd do
-
He never spoke much
But showed so much love
In all that he did
For each one of us
