Nearly 3 years since my dad died. I miss him, the cantankerous bugger

theres this man from the lakes
a northern country lad
he moved to the big city
that man he is my dad

he married his sweetheart barbara
lots of love they have
as a couple they were perfect
that man he is my dad

a friendly and a complex man
great qualities he had
quiet and unassuming
that man he is my dad

he worked hard,loved his job
even went when he was bad
a mechanic , he fixed things
that man he is my dad

as a man he could be stubborn
it used to drive me mad
but only cos he cared for me
that man he is my dad

he loved a game of snooker
he often came home sad
his mate vic had won again
that man he is my dad

but i know as i stand here
of one thing i am glad
ive known a very precious man
that man he is my dad
