Scott Whitby, 2020


Daddy I wish I had liked it

Sittin' on the fender and learning

I'm sorry I didn't

All I knew was yearning


Daddy I wish you knew

Hoeing, it hurt so bad

I'm sorry you didn't

I wanted you to be glad


Daddy I hope you see

It wasn't your life from that I ran

Daddy...I hope you know

It was your life that made me a man
