When I was a boy daddy was my guiding light
|
We'd take walks and talk about fishing girls and life
|
He'd help me with my homework cheer me up when I was down
|
Best friend that I ever had I miss havin' him around
|
He'd say do the very best you can with all that you've been blessed
|
And if the load's too great for you the Lord will do the rest
|
Keep one thing in mind if all else should fail
|
You can't control the wind but you can adjust the sail
|
Daddy lost his job when the factory closed
|
Times were hard bills to pay he was troubled and it showed
|
But he said son don't worry it's all to no avail
|
We can't control the wind but we can adjust the sail
|
I think of his advice when life turns its back on me
|
There is no mountain I can't climb if I start down on my knees
|
I'll do the very best I can with all that I've been blessed
|
And if the load's too great for me the Lord will do the rest
|
I'll keep one thing in mind if all else should fail
|
I can't control the wind but I can adjust the sail
|
No I can't control the wind but I can adjust the sail
