"He Was NY Dad

1t hurts me to think that hes gone
To some resting place ulonc:
And leave me to carry on
For those that he SO dea"!y loved.
He'd sit every night and just read.
While we went out to have fun,
And we'd sleep late in the day
While he was up with the sun.
He worked hard so he could provide
So that we could have the best.
When things were bad he still! tried
To the day they laid him to rest.
Then that day when sickness hit him
And the Doctor said he was through
He didn't give up the fight,
He just didn't know what to do.
He thought that he had failed us
And it hurt him from his heart

When he wanted tosdo his part.
He was the SWEETEST guy / know of,
The best pal / ever had.
TO YOU he was just friend.
But to me, He Was My Dad!

1T is so easy II government to

a tendency for property rights to
