Текст пісні
In the shadow of the old oak tree
There's a tale to be told about you and me
As a young boy I had a guiding light
Teaching me wrong from right
You taught me how to throw and how to run
You showed me the beauty of the setting sun
As I grew older I started to stray
I carved my own path but ended up ok
The road we've traveled has been long and hard
But I know deep inside we've come so far
You'll always be a legend my shining star
Forever grateful for the man you are
Now I'm standing here reflecting back
On all the times we had
The lessons that you gave along the way
I know one day that you’ll be smiling from the grave
So here's to you dear father of mine
In your footsteps I'll continue to climb
With your words of wisdom buried deep in my soul
I'll carry on to make you proud i know
