about

This father’s day, Brenna Lynn wrote an acoustic, heartfelt, thankful song for her dad, because fathers are the only ones who can teach the life lessons they teach to their children, especially their daughters.

lyrics

You called me sport, you called me champ
So I always knew I was better than the boys
Listening to music on the ride home
Teaching me to dance to the noise

Thank you for letting me argue with you
It’s because of you that I’m strong the way I am
Thank you for treating mom the way you do
It’s because of you that I’ve found the perfect man

I used to ask my daddy if he could lift me up
So I could reach up and touch the ceiling
And now I am big I am all grown up
And I’ve moved away
And I realize my daddy’s been lifting me up my whole life
So I could reach for the ceiling every day

You never have to worry ‘bout me
I learned everything I need to from my dad
I can hear your voice saying keep your eye on the ball
And run as fast as you can

No one works harder than my parents do
They kept the food on the table
They never let me forget for a day
That I am smart and able

I used to ask my daddy if he could lift me up
So I could reach up and touch the ceiling
And now I am big, I am all grown up
And I’ve moved away
And I realize my daddy’s been lifting me up my whole life
So I could reach for the ceiling every day

And I realize my daddy’s been lifting me up my whole life
So I could reach for the ceiling every day
