Horace Silver - Song for My Father

To Rate
Instrumental

Verse 1
This little song for my father
Does things that no other
Can do
As I sing it to you
It has a rhythm and a rhyme
That will fasten his memory
In time
As his beauty shines through
For through my mind and soul
My heart will always hold
A special place for him
It's true
Verse 2
We bow our heads and we pray
Every day Father's Day
And let's review
All that he means to you
Our mother's love is real nice
But old Dad sacrificed
For us too
Let us, let us give him his due
We're very proud to be
In his biography
We sing this song for him
And you, you, you, you

We bow our heads and we pray
Every day Father's Day
Let's review
All that he means to you
Our mother's love is real nice
But old Dad sacrificed
For us too
Let us give, give him his due
We're very proud, proud to be
In his biography
We sing this song for him
We sing this song for him and you
We sing this song for him and you
We sing this song for him and you, you, you, you, you
