Verse

Dad always told me family comes first

Words he'd say as he went off to work

He was truly the salt of the earth

Sweat pouring over his dirty shirt



Verse

He'd smile as he kissed my mom

She'd smile back, handed him his lunch

A brown bag with a line from a song

Notes of hope from the home front



Chorus

Workin' hard from when the sun comes up

Hurry home when the sun goes down

Dad was right, some days wlll be long

Love helps me to carry on

When those days are long



Verse

We always felt that our life was good

Had what we needed more or less

Fond memories from my childhood

Looking back I feel we were blessed



Prechorus

Memories live in my heart

Mom and dad gave me a great start



Chorus

Workin' hard from when the sun comes up

Hurry home when the sun goes down

Dad was right, some days will be long

Love helps me to carry on

When those days are long



Outro

Dad was right, some days will be long

Love helps me to carry on

When those days are long
