I remember looking up to look up to him
ย
And I remember most the time he wasn't there
ย
I'd be waiting at the door when he got home at night
He'd pass me by to go pass out in his chair
And I'd say: "Walk a little straighter Daddy
You're swaying, side to side
Your footsteps make me dizzy
And no matter how I try
I keep tripping and stumbling
If you'd look down here, you'd see
Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're leading me"
ย
He stumbled in the gym on graduation day
ย
And I couldn't help but feel so ashamed
ย
And I wasn't surprised a bit when he didn't stay
He stumbled out before they called my name
And I thought:"Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're swaying, side to side
It's not just me who's watching
You've caught everybody's eye
And you're tripping and stumbling
And even though I've turned eighteen
Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're still leading me"
ย
The old man's still like he always was
But I love him anyway
If I've learned one thing from him
It's my kids will never have to say
ย
"Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're swaying, side to side
Your footsteps make me dizzy
And no matter how I try
I keep tripping and stumbling
If you'd look down here, you'd see
Walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're leading me"
"Yeah, walk a little straighter, Daddy
You're leading me"
