My Father's Song

Whatever you are you're going to be

Whatever you are is all right with me

You're going to be what you want anyway

These are the words i heard my father say

When i was a young girl and shy of men

He said when you're ready you'll know just when

And when i was taken and thrown away

There wasn't a reason to face the day



And he said:

Whatever you are you're going to be

Whatever you are is all right with me

You're going to be what you want anyway

These are the words i heard my father say



My father soul is clear and easy

And though he's gone, he lives in my heart

When i go wrong i swear he sees me

And he smiles for a start and he says:



Whatever you are i'm here by your side

My life is a rope that won't come untied

Oh i'm going to stand by you right or wrong

These are the words within my father's song

These are the words within my father's song
