But don’t let it fool ya

And she’ll say what she thinks

She makes me a better man like you did

Hey pops that girl I told ya bout

Yeah we, We’ve been married a couple months now

And we saved you a spot next to momma on that front church pew

I bet you would’ve loved our wedding band

I bet you would’ve cried
The dad would have been emotional during the wedding ceremony.

I bet you would’ve laughed

I bet you would’ve loved it when she called you dad

Hey pops, you know I hate to cry

But I, I just let them rain that night

That I held your grandbaby in my hands for the very first time

She’s got brown eyes just like you
