The winstons color him father lyrics

There's a man at my house he's so big and strong 

 He goes to work each day, stays all day long 

 He comes home each night looking tired and beat 

 He sits down at the dinner table and has a bite to eat 

 Never a frown always a smile 

 When he says to me how's my child 

 I've been studying hard all day in school 

 Tryin' to understand the golden rule 

  

 Think I'll color this man father 

 I think I'll color him love 

 Said I'm gonna color him father 

 I think I'll color the man love, yes I will 

  

 He says education is the thing if you wanna compete 

 Because without it son, life ain't very sweet 

 I love this man I don't know why 

 Jexcept I'll need his strength till the day that I die 

 My mother loves him and I can tell 

 By the way she looks at him when he holds my little sister nell 

 I heard her say just the other day 

 That if it hadn't been for him she wouldn't have found her way 

 My real old man he got killed in the war 

 And she knows she and seven kids couldn't of got very far 

 She said she thought that she could never love again 

 And then there he stood with that big wide grin 

 He married my mother and he took us in 

 And now we belong to the nman with that big wide grin 

  

 Think I'll color this man father 

 I think I'll color him love 

 Said I'm gonna color him father 

 I think I'll color the man love, yes I will
