Daddy Cut My Hair - Gary Chapman[00:00:00]

Lyricist：Michael Kelly Blanchard[00:00:05]

Composer：Michael Kelly Blanchard[00:00:10]

Daddy cut my hair[00:00:15]

Didn't care for style[00:00:19]

He'd just snip and snip[00:00:22]

And sweep it in a pile[00:00:25]

I could not keep still[00:00:29]

But he would understand[00:00:33]

Some things are just known[00:00:36]

Between a boy and a man[00:00:39]

Right there in the middle[00:00:45]

Of our kitchen's cluttered floor[00:00:48]

In the middle of the fifties[00:00:51]

In between a couple wars[00:00:55]

He'd get out his old scorched[00:00:58]

Shirt and wrap it round my neck[00:01:01]

And he would be so close to me[00:01:05]

I'd smell the coffee on his breath[00:01:09]

He would be so close to me[00:01:13]

We had a fallin' out[00:01:21]

I don't remember why[00:01:24]

But every time I think on it[00:01:27]

There's water in my eyes[00:01:30]

We said some awful things[00:01:34]

He ordered me to leave[00:01:38]

For years[00:01:41]

My sister wrote about[00:01:42]

How hard my mother grieved[00:01:44]

Second tour of duty[00:01:50]

When the thrill had long been gone[00:01:53]

I started giving haircuts[00:01:56]

To my buddies there in Nam[00:01:59]

The wire came on Friday[00:02:03]

I was cutting Jo Jo's hair[00:02:06]

We buried mom on Wednesday[00:02:10]

Dad was happy I was there[00:02:13]

We buried mom on Wednesday[00:02:18]

He never did remarry[00:02:27]

Traveled quite a bit[00:02:30]

As a father still some distance[00:02:34]

But as a grandpa quite a hit[00:02:37]

The stroke was unexpected[00:02:41]

There is so much to relearn[00:02:44]

He gets around with just a cane[00:02:47]

But his speech has not returned[00:02:51]

Now I cut daddy's hair[00:03:15]

He still don't care for style[00:03:18]

I snip and snip the memories[00:03:22]

And I sweep them in a pile[00:03:25]

I don't say a word[00:03:30]

He smiles when I'm done[00:03:33]

Some things are just known[00:03:37]

Between a father and his son[00:03:39]

Right there in the middle[00:03:46]

Of our kitchen's cluttered floor[00:03:49]

In my middle forties[00:03:53]

I feel the ache once more[00:03:56]

For all the years[00:03:59]

Our anger kept us far apart[00:04:01]

Thank God that there's forgiveness to mend a broken heart[00:04:06]

Thank God that there's forgiveness[00:04:13]
