[Verso 1] G Just listen if you will G To the tale Im bout to share G About a father and his son G Couldve happened anywhere [Verso 2] G The father tried to pass along G All the wisdom that he knew G And the boy found joy in all the things G That him and dad would do [Verso 3] G Hed watch the man get out his tools G Rrepair a leaky drain G To change the oil in the car G Or to fix his old toy train [Verso 4] G Hed ride along as dad would drive G To put money in the bank G Stop off at the grocery store G Or put fuel in the tank [Verso 5] G Hed wear his hat just like dads G As they walked in through the door G It was his favorite of all the things G A trip to the hardware store [Verso 6] G Tools, parts, paints and nails G Lumber, plants and gloves G These were all the things G That little boys love [Verso 7] G On the way home one day G The boy looked at his dad G And the old man almost shed a tear G At what the little guy had said [Verso 8] G He said dad, I dont know why G But when you take me to that place G It puts a song down in my heart G Then he wrinkled up his face [Verso 9] G And as the boy prepared to sing G Dad watched in the rear view G Surprised to discover G It was a song he also knew G The boy sang out with all his might G His father joined in too G And now Id also like to share G That humble tune with you...
