Karaoke Track: He Didn't Have To Be by Brad Paisley (Monster Hits)

When a single mom
Goes out on a date with
Somebody new

It always winds up

Feelin&#39; more like
A iob interview

My mo ma used to

Wonder if she&#39;d

Ever meet someone

That would n&#39;f
Find out about me

And then turn around

And run

I met the man

I call my dad

When I was

Five yea rs old

He took my mom
Out to a movie

And for once
I got to go

A few months later

I re member Iyin&#39;

There in bed

I overheard him
Pop the question

And I prayed that
She&#39;d say yes

And then
All of a sudden

Oh it seemed
So strange to me

How we went from

Somethin&#39;s missin&#39;
To 0 f0 mily

Lookin&#39; back
All I can say about

All the things
He did for me

Is I hope I&#39;m at least

Half the dad

That he did n&#39;f

Have to be

I met the girl

Thafs now my wife
About three years ago

We had the perfect
Marriage but

We wanted
Somethin&#39; more

And now here I stand

Surrounded by

Our f0 mily and friends

Crowded &#39;round
The nursery window

As they bring
The be by in

And now

All of a sudden

Oh it seems
So strange to me

How we&#39;ve gone from

Somethin&#39;s missin&#39;
To 0 f0 mily

Lookin&#39; through
The glass

I think about the man
That&#39;s standin&#39;
Next to me

And I hope

I&#39;m at least

Half the dad

(Instrumental Break)

Loo kin&#39; back

All I can say aboui
All the things

He did for me

Is I hope I&#39;m at least

Half the dad

That he did n&#39;f

Have to be

Because he did n&#39;f
Have to be

You know he did n&#39;f
Have to be
