  • Had a dad, bug and strong
    Turned around, found my daddy gone
    He was the one made me what I am today
    It's up to me now, my daddy has gone away
    Well I spoke to the mountain, I listened to the sea
    Both told me that the fountain was the best that you can be
    My daddy's hand, it growed
    Slow to the lickin' sonny boy
    Grow to whip him even tried to call
    Got that funny feeling
    He's not there at all Writer/s: DAVID NAVARRO, ERIC ADAM AVERY, PERRY FARRELL, STEPHEN PERKINS
