Father to Son
A word in your ear, from father to sonhear the words that I sayI fought with you, fought on your sideLong before you were born
Joyful the sound, the word goes aroundFrom father to son, to son
And the voice is so clear, time after time it leepsCALLING you, calling you onDon't destroy what you see, your country to beJust keep on building on the ground that's been won
Kings will be crowned, the word goes aroundFrom father to son, to son
Take this letter that I give you,Take it sonny, hold it highYou won't understand a word that's in itBut you'll write it all again before you dieA word in your ear from father to sonFunny you don't hear a single word I sayBut my letter to you, will stay by your sideThrough the years till the loneliness is goneSing if you will -But the air you breathe I live to give you
