Q&A
Father Father Do You Wait Lyrics
Sometimes I wonder if you’re watching
When I am up to something bad
And I wonder if you’d forgive me
Me being the only son you had
Sometimes I wonder if you love me
Through all the ugly things I do
Because, despite my faults and failings,
I still love you
Father, Father do you wait
There beside the pearly gate
With your handsome smile and your Camel straight
Burning in your fingers
We made a good team, didn’t we
Winding around those mountain roads
Dodging traffic light and weigh scales
Hauling those wide loads
And you, you always acted proud of me
When everything I did was wrong
I wish that I had half your courage
Wish I was half as strong
Father, Father do you wait
There beside the pearly gate
With your handsome smile and your Camel straight
Burning in your fingers
I wish my children could have know you
Not just the flowers on your grave
Wish I could trade you for your legend
You would have blown them away
Father, Father do you wait
There beside the pearly gate
With your handsome smile and your Camel straight
Burning in your fingers
When I am up to something bad
And I wonder if you’d forgive me
Me being the only son you had
Through all the ugly things I do
Because, despite my faults and failings,
I still love you
There beside the pearly gate
With your handsome smile and your Camel straight
Burning in your fingers
Winding around those mountain roads
Dodging traffic light and weigh scales
Hauling those wide loads
When everything I did was wrong
I wish that I had half your courage
Wish I was half as strong
There beside the pearly gate
With your handsome smile and your Camel straight
Burning in your fingers
Not just the flowers on your grave
Wish I could trade you for your legend
You would have blown them away
There beside the pearly gate
With your handsome smile and your Camel straight
Burning in your fingers
