Don't Let Me Be The Man My Daddy Was (Live) - The Chi-Lites[00:00:00]

He's worth more[00:00:26]

Than every star in the sky[00:00:28]

With that look of forgiveness[00:00:35]

That's always in his eyes[00:00:38]

He works so hard[00:00:43]

But gentle as a lamb[00:00:45]

Gave up so much[00:00:51]

To make me just what I am and oh[00:00:54]

Oh let me be[00:01:00]

The man my daddy was[00:01:02]

Oh let me be[00:01:08]

The man my daddy was[00:01:10]

When I was young[00:01:16]

Sometimes foolishly I played[00:01:18]

But he reached out and oh[00:01:25]

Showed me the way[00:01:29]

Now he's only human[00:01:33]

Bound to make mistakes[00:01:37]

But it was all right[00:01:41]

By the moment I would awake and oh[00:01:44]

Oh let me be[00:01:50]

The man my daddy was[00:01:52]

Oh let me be[00:01:58]

The man my daddy was[00:02:01]

Sometimes I hope[00:02:06]

I don't live to see the day[00:02:09]

When he reaches down[00:02:15]

Take them both away[00:02:18]

Look at my children[00:02:23]

Sometimes foolishly they play[00:02:27]

Let me live long enough[00:02:32]

Let me show them the way[00:02:34]

My clothes were sometimes untidy[00:02:39]

That bed was never made[00:02:43]

Mom and dad would scold me good[00:02:48]

Never doubted I've made the grade[00:02:52]

Now that I'm a man[00:02:57]

I ask the Lord up above[00:03:00]

Please let me raise my children right[00:03:04]

Be the man my daddy was oh[00:03:08]

Oh let me be[00:03:13]

The man my daddy was[00:03:16]

Oh let me be[00:03:22]

The man my daddy was[00:03:24]

He was a good man[00:03:28]

He was a good man[00:03:30]

He was a poor man[00:03:32]

He was a fine man[00:03:34]

He was a poor man[00:03:41]

Oh let me be[00:04:55]

The man my daddy was[00:04:58]

He was a good man[00:05:01]

He was a poor man[00:05:05]

He was a good man[00:05:09]

He was a poor man[00:05:18]

He was a good man[00:05:22]
