V-1
DADDY, WHEN I SAW YOU WEEP,
I DIDN'T THINK YOU WERE WEAK.
AS, YOUR TEARS BEGIN TO FALL,
OUT TO YOU, MY HEART DID CALL.
NOW, WHY DID I WAIT,
NOW, IT IS TO LATE.
FOR NOW, I AM ALL ALONE,
KNOWING TEARS AREN'T WRONG.
CHORUS
DADDY, WHEN I SAW YOU WEEP,
TO MY HEART YOU DID SPEAK.
YOU HELPED ME TO UNDERSTAND,
WHAT IS PART OF BEING A REAL MAN?
V-2
YES, I FELT THE STRENGTH INSIDE,
THAT CAME FROM SEEING YOU CRY.
THINGS TO ME, DADDY YOU TAUGHT,
THAT DAY WEEPING YOU WERE CAUGHT.
IN FRONT OF PEOPLE, YOU WOULD NOT WEEP,
IT WAS SOMETHING TO YOUR SELF TO KEEP.
CHORUS
DADDY, WHEN I SAW YOU WEEP,
TO MY HEART YOU DID SPEAK.
YOU HELPED ME TO UNDERSTAND,
WHAT IS PART OF BEING A REAL MAN?
BRIDGE
IT WAS THEN YOU SHOWED ME, HOW TO SHARE,
THE FEELINGS THAT FOR A REAL MAN: SHOULD BE THERE.
V-3
TEACHING ME, WITH EVERYTHING YOU DID,
SHOWING HOW A DAD COULD HELP A KID.
HOW A REAL MAN WILL COME TO UNDERSTAND,
THAT WHEN OPENLY, YOU WEEP, YOU AREN'T LESS A MAN.
CHORUS
DADDY, WHEN I SAW YOU WEEP,
TO MY HEART YOU DID SPEAK.
YOU HELPED ME TO UNDERSTAND,
WHAT IS PART OF BEING A REAL MAN?
YOU HELPED ME TO UNDERSTAND,
WHAT IS PART OF BEING A REAL MAN?
