Single Father

(专辑： Kid Rock - 2003)

Lately I have been spending lots of time with my kid
Telling him stories
About the things that we did
When we were a family
Long time ago
I've answered his questions
'Til I'm blue in the face
Wish all that hurt in him
I could erase
But I tell him the truth
'Cause he is not to young to know

Single father
Part-time mother
When I'm not one
Then I'm the other
You used to be
My full-time lover
Now I'm a single father
And a part-time mother

I spend every minute
I can with my boy
There's no doubt about it
He's my pride and joy
Someday he will grow up
And I won't have him no more
Some things I just find
Too hard to explain
So we go to McDonald's
Or I buy him a train
And we go put it together
On the living room floor

Such is the life
Of a single father
He says, "Daddy, explain
If it's not too much bother
While it's just you and me
Living here in this home."
I don't understand it
And neither does he
Why there's just two
When there should be three of us
Sharing this moment
Lord I feel so alone

Single father
Part-time mother
When I'm not one
Then I'm the other
You used to be
My full-time lover
Now I'm a single father
And a part-time mother
