| [Verse 1] There's a man at my house, he's so big and strong He goes to work each day, and he stays all day long He comes home each night looking tired and beat He sits down at the dinner table and has a bite to eat Never a frown, always a smile When he says to me, "How's my child?" I said that I've been studying hard all day in school Tryin' very hard to understand the golden rule [Chorus] I think I'll color this man father (Color him father) I think I'll color him love (Color him love) Said I'm gonna color him father (Color him father) I think I'll color the man love, yes I will (Color him faaa~) [Verse 2] He says education is the thing if you want to compete Because without it son, life ain't very sweet I love this man and I don't know why Except I'll need his strength until the day that I die My mother loves him and I can tell By the way she looks at him when he holds my little sister Nell I heard her say just the other day That if it hadn't of been for him she couldn't have found her way [Chorus] I think I'll color him father (Color him father) I'm gonna color him love (Color him love) I've got to color him father (Color him father) I think I'll color this man love (Color him faaa~) [Verse 3] Our real old man, he got killed in the war And she knows she and seven kids couldn't of gotten very far She said she thought that she could never love again And then there he stood with that big wide grin He married my mother and he took us in And now we belong to the man with that big wide grin [Chorus] I've got to color this man father (Color him father) I'm gonna color him love (Color him love) I've got to color him father (Color him father) I believe I'll color this man love (Color him faaa~) [Extended Chorus] He's just been so good to me (Color him father) I know I've got to color him love (Color him lover) I'm gonna color him father (Color him father) I've got to color this man love (Color him faaa~) He's just been so kind (Color him father) I think I'll color him love (Color him love) I'm gonna color him father (Color him father) |
