A boy walks past a window of a glowing, open sign Full of wooden toys and trucks and painted trains Rings a bell up on the counter, hands a picture to the man Of a kid beside a soldier smiling away
Said, "Sir, I´ve heard you can build anything"
Could you build me a daddy? Strong as Superman Make him 10 feet tall with a southern drawl and a crooked smile if you can ´Cause I sure miss him Maybe you could bring him back? If I walked in with him, it´d sure make Momma happy, if you could build me a daddy
There´s an old Winchester rifle, back home hanging on the wall He promised me, he´d teach me how to aim And he said, when I got older, we could work on that curveball I know he´d never wanna miss a game So, here´s a little money that I´ve saved
Could you build me a daddy? Strong as Superman Make him 10 feet tall with a southern drawl and a crooked smile if you can I sure miss him Maybe you could bring him back If I walked in with him, it´d sure make Momma happy, if you could build me a daddy
Give him a big heart, make his arms wide open I know he misses me, so Mister, I was hoping
You could build me a daddy Strong as Superman Make him 10 feet tall with a southern drawl and a fishing pole in his hand ´Cause I sure miss him
Maybe you could bring him back If I walked in with him, it´d sure make my momma happy, if you could you build me a daddy
