Dear Ol' Dad

[Verse 1] Come now, and listen babe I got a reason why I behave Like a child with the light in his eyes When you're naked on a cold winter night I'm like a pigeon that's spreading his wings To fly away to better things Like a hammer that has made a dent In every little, single cent you've spent [Chorus] Said, oh God, you've got to help me, a little bit You've got, you've gotta have a relief valve for me, yeah [Verse 2] Now, I know I'm always right That's a thought that never even crossed my mind Don't touch me there, I gotta be pure So smack that hand, and read this verse So, I wrecked your life, what the heck? My new found faith will pay that check [Bridge] This life's took a toll on my soul This life's took a toll on my soul [Solo] [Verse 3] Now this is me, and that's my song And I guess you can see we don't get along I've shut the doors on what we had So, now, she can sleep with dear ol' dad My eyes are dry and my hands are clean And I can't believe all the things I've seen [Chorus] Said, oh God, you've got to help me, a little bit You've got, you've gotta have a relief valve for me, yeah I said, oh my God She's ridin' on her own Sha-da-li Da-da-li Da-da-li Da-da-li He don't I don't I know I know too To be together with a backbone on, hon She lookin' good, a lookin' good A lookin' good a-with a backbone on, hon Said you're lookin-lookin-lookin good with a ??? One more And I'll say no more I, I I said, I'm gonna keep the dog
