o.c. smith - color him father lyrics

[intro]
mm… (color him father) yes, and color him love
(color him father) oh, color him love
(color him father) and then color him love
(color him father)

[verse 1]
now there’s a man in my house, he’s so big and strong
he goes to work each day, and stays all day long
comes home each night lookin’ tired and beat
he sits down at the dinner table, and has a bite to eat
never frown, always a smile
and when he says to me, “how’s my child?”
i say i’ve been studying hard all day in school
trying hard to understand the golden rule

[chorus]
and i think i’ll color him father (color him father)
i think i’ll color him love (color him father)
oh, i’m gonna color him fathеr (color him father)
yes ma’am, i’ll color this man love (color him fathеr)

[verse 2]
he says education is the thing, if you wanna compete
because without it, son, you know life ain’t very sweet
and i love this man, i don’t know why
except i need his strength until the day i die
and my mother loves him, yes, and i can tell
by the way she looks at him, when he holds my little sister nel
and i hear her say just the other day
if it hadn’t been for him, oh, she couldn’t have found a way
[chorus]
and i think i’ll color him father
yeah, i think i’ll color him love
oh, i’m gonna color him father
yes, gotta color him love, mm

[bridge]
hey, that’s him working now, see
mhm, yeah, uh, come on now

[verse 3]
oh… you know our real old man, he got k!lled in a war
and mother knows she and 7 kids couldn’t have gotten very far
she said, she thought she could never love again
and then got used to it, that big white grin
and he married my mother and took us in
yeah, and now we belong to the man with that big, white grin
like i said before, i heard her say just the other day
if it hadn’t been for him, oh, she couldn’t have found a way

[outro]
and i think i’ll color him father
gonna color him love, yes
i’ve got to color him father
oh, you know i gotta color him love
help me please, help me color him father
yes, help me color him love
oh, i got to color him father
yeah, got to color him love
listen, oh, color him father, father…
