Father's Day (Acoustic)

I haven't always been a single man

And I haven't always lived up here

Along with all these other single men

With a ring around the bath and a cigarette but in my beard

And I haven't always been a lonely man

And I haven't always lived alone

And you know I haven't always drunk this much

But hey, before you cut me down, just try standing in my shoes

Because I don't have to hear one word of this, no

And any other day, I might care what you say

But every Saturday is Father's Day

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But I've got one who calls me dad

And all the other blokes that live up

Here know how to leave a man alone

They're not a bad old bunch that live up here

Ah, but you know that it's not family and it's not home

One of the darling wives that once I had

Well, I'm pleased to say that she still talks to me

But I try not to think of what went wrong

What went wrong

Because if I said that I was right, she might say that she was right

And the only rights I care about are visiting rights

Yeah

And any other day, I might care what you say

But every Saturday is Father's Day

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But I've got one who calls me dad

We go where he wants to go

And we do what he wants to do

I tell him everything I know because I'd do anything to prove

Yeah, I'd do anything to prove

That every Saturday, I will do what he might say

Because each and every Saturday is Father's Day

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But it don't feel so bad when he calls me...

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But it don't feel half bad when he calls me...

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

God, I feel so glad when he calls me dad

Yeah, he calls me dad

I haven't always been a single man
