Song title: George Strait - A Father's Love

Edit By: 216.73.216.138

I got sent home from school one day with a shiner on my eye
 Fighting was against the rules and it didnt matter why
 When Dad got home I told that story just like Id rehearsed
 Then stood there on those trembling knees and waited for the worst

And he said, Let me tell you a secret, about a fathers love
 A secret that my daddy said was just between us
 He said daddies dont just love their children every now and then
 Its a love without end, amen, its a love without end, amen

When I became a father in the spring of 81
 There was no doubt that stubborn boy was just like my fathers son
 And when I thought my patience had been tested to the end
 I took my daddys secret and I passed it on to him

And I said, Let me tell you a secret, about a fathers love
 A secret that my daddy said was just between us
 I said daddies dont just love their children every now and then
 Its a love without end, amen, its a love without end, amen

Last night I dreamed Id died and stood outside those pearly gates
 When suddenly I realized there must be some mistake
 If they know half the stuff I done theyll never let me in
 Then somewhere from the other side I heard these words again

And they said, Let me tell you a secret, about a fathers love
 A secret that my daddy said was just between us
 You see daddies dont just love their children every now and then
 Its a love without end, amen, its a love without end, amen
