Lyrics

NEVER LET ME DOWN<br />
<br />
He worked twice as hard as most men,<br />
And he worked twice as long.<br />
When mortal men were tired and spent,<br />
Pop was still going strong.<br />
<br />
He bought me my first two-wheeled bike<br />
And my first baseball glove.<br />
He didn&rsquo;t do it out of like;<br />
He did it out of love.<br />
<br />
Got a trophy and a crown<br />
For the greatest dad around,<br />
A medal and a gold cup<br />
For the greatest dad in town.<br />
Got a medal and a gold cup<br />
For the greatest dad around.<br />
He&rsquo;s the man who brought me up<br />
And never let me down.<br />
<br />
He showed me quiet action beats talk,<br />
Settles things man to man.<br />
Better still, he taught me to walk<br />
According to God&rsquo;s Plan.<br />
<br />
Got a trophy and a crown<br />
For the greatest dad around,<br />
A medal and a gold cup<br />
For the greatest dad in town.<br />
A medal and a gold cup<br />
For the greatest dad around.<br />
He&rsquo;s the man who brought me up<br />
And never let me down.<br />
<br />
They said that he could beat<br />
The best golfers of his day.<br />
All I know is that he won<br />
Every time I saw him play.<br />
But he turned his back on golf,<br />
Faced responsibility,<br />
To care for my sisters,<br />
My sisters and me.<br />
<br />
Got a trophy and a crown<br />
For the greatest dad around,<br />
A medal and a gold cup<br />
For the greatest dad in town.<br />
He&rsquo;s the man who brought me up<br />
And never let me down.<br />
