That's My Job - Ameritz Tribute Club (Ameritz翻唱俱乐部)[00:00:00]
I woke up cryin' late at night when I was very young[00:00:10]
I had dreamed my father had passed away and gone[00:00:19]
My world revolved around him[00:00:29]
I couldn't lie there anymore[00:00:32]
So I made my way down the mirrored hall[00:00:37]
And tapped upon his door[00:00:42]
And I said Daddy I'm so afraid[00:00:46]
How will I go on with you gone that way[00:00:52]
Don't wanna cry anymore[00:00:56]
So may I stay with you[00:00:59]
And he said That's my job that's what I do[00:01:05]
Everything I do is because of you[00:01:16]
To keep you safe with me[00:01:20]
That's my job you see[00:01:25]
Later we barely got along[00:01:33]
This teenage boy and he[00:01:37]
Most of the fights it seems were over different dreams[00:01:41]
We each held for me[00:01:47]
He wanted knowledge and learning[00:01:52]
I wanted to fly out west[00:01:56]
Said I could make it out there if I just had the fare[00:02:00]
I got half will you loan me the rest[00:02:05]
And I said Daddy I'm so afraid[00:02:09]
Theres no guarantee in the plans I've made[00:02:15]
And if I should fail[00:02:19]
Who will pay my way back home[00:02:22]
And he said That's my job that's what I do[00:02:28]
Everything I do is because of you[00:02:39]
To keep you safe with me[00:02:43]
That's my job you see[00:02:48]
Every person carves his spot[00:02:54]
And fills the hole with life[00:02:58]
And I pray someday I might light as bright as he[00:03:02]
Woke up early one bright fall day[00:03:15]
Just read the tragic news[00:03:20]
After all my travels[00:03:24]
I settled down within a mile or two[00:03:27]
I make my livin' with words[00:03:34]
And rhymes and all this tragedies[00:03:36]
Should go into my head[00:03:43]
And out instead as bits of poetry[00:03:45]
But I say Daddy I'm so afraid[00:03:51]
How will I go on with you gone this way[00:03:57]
How can I come up with a song to say I love you[00:04:02]
That's my job that's what I do[00:04:14]
Everything I do is because of you[00:04:23]
To keep you safe with me[00:04:28]
That's my job you see[00:04:33]
Everything I do is because of you[00:04:38]
To keep you safe with me[00:04:42]
