[00:19.009]There's a man at my house, he's so big and strong
[00:22.737]He goes to work each day, and he stays all day long
[00:26.950]He comes home each night looking tired and beat
[00:30.907]He sits down at the dinner table and has a bite to eat
[00:34.618]
[00:35.905]Never a frown, always a smile
[00:39.357]When he says to me: "How's my child?"
[00:43.403]I said that I've been studying hard all day in school
[00:47.420]Trying very hard to understand the golden rule
[00:50.259]
[00:51.067]I think I'll color this man father
[00:54.233]I think I'll color him love
[00:58.915]Said I'm gonna color him father
[01:02.931]I think I'll color the man love, yes I will
[01:06.443]
[01:08.214]He says education is the thing if you want to compete
[01:12.426]Because without it son, life ain't very sweet
[01:17.111]I love this man and I don't know why
[01:20.593]Except I'll need his strength until the day that I die
[01:24.643]
[01:25.396]My mother loves him and I can tell
[01:29.322]By the way she looks at him when he holds my little sister Nell
[01:34.092]I heard her say just the other day
[01:37.320]That if it hadn't of been for him she couldn't have found her way
[01:40.812]
[01:41.359]I think I'll color him father
[01:44.563]I'm gonna color him love
[01:48.835]I've got to color him father
[01:52.876]I think I'll color this man love
[01:56.624]
[02:03.281]Our real old man, he got killed in the war
[02:07.043]And she knows she and seven kids couldn't of gotten very far
[02:11.093]She said she thought that she could never love again
[02:15.257]And then there he stood with that big wide grin
[02:19.809]He married my mother and he took us in
[02:23.604]And now we belong to the man with that big wide grin
[02:26.455]
