E
Lately I've been spendin' lots of time
with my kid
A
Tellin' him stories
About the things that we did
E
When we were a family
B7
Long time ago
E
I've answered his questions
Till I'm blue in the face
A
Wish all the hurt in him
I could erase
E B7
But I tell him the truth
E
'Cause he ain't too young to know
A
Single father
E
Part time mother
B7
When I'm not one
E
Then I'm the other
A
You used to be
E
My full time lover
B7
Now I'm a single father
E
And part time mother
E
I spend every minute
I can with my boy
A
There's no doubt about it
He's my pride and joy
E
Someday he'll grow up
B7
And I won't have him no more
E
Some things I just find
Too hard to explain
A
So we go to McDonalds
Or I buy him a train
E B7
And we put it together
E
On the living room floor
A
Such is the life
Of a single father
E
He says daddy explain
If it's not too much bother
B7
While it's just you and me
E
Living here in this home
A
I don't understand it
And either does he
E
Why there's just two
When there should be three of us
B7
Sharing this moment
E
Lord I feel so alone
A
Single father
E
Part time mother
B7
When I'm not one
E
Then I'm the other
A
You used to be
E
My full time lover
B7
Now I'm a single father
E
And part time mother
