for my dad - sammy walker lyrics
[verse 1]
one christmas morn when i was just a lad
i got a special gift from mom and dad
beneath the tree’s bright star
was a little cheap guitar
it was the very best gift i ever had
though my dad never learned to play himself
he’d take the little guitar from the shelf
and play a record of a tune
for me to practice in my room
till i could pick out that old tune all by myself
[chorus]
and i always loved pickin’ for my dad
he was the very best friend i ever had
for my dad, for my dad
i always loved pickin’ for my dad
[bridge]
if they have guitar pickin’ up in heaven
that’s where i hope someday to be
pickin’ out a medley
of the songs i used to play
and my good old dad sittin’ next to me
[verse 2]
under the double eagle and wildwood flower
he would ask me to sit and pick ’em all night long
there ain’t nothin’ he liked better
than a*sittin’ on his sitter
and listenin’ to a good old country song
through the years, those times weren’t near enough
when life’s road sometime gets kinda rough
we’d pull up a rocking chair
for a moment, not a care
and take our minds off all that other stuff
[chorus]
and i always loved pickin’ for my dad
he was the very best friend i ever had
for my dad, for my dad
i always loved pickin’ for my dad
[bridge]
if they have guitar pickin’ up in heaven
that’s where i hope someday to be
pickin’ out a medley
of the songs i used to play
and my good old dad sittin’ next to me
[chorus]
i always loved pickin’ for my dad
he was the very best friend i ever had
for my dad, for my dad
i always loved pickin’ for my dad
