The Dads and Kids Song
 Harrell and Stafford
2001

C                                        A7
Dads and Kids, Same time every year,
D7                         G
Time to bond and, Time for beer
C                                A7
All the Dads loose as they can be,
D7                            G
There's a principal behind a tree....

Chorus
C                                C7
We left their Mamas all alone,
                        F                            D7
Kids; what you see and hear well it DON'T GO HOME
C                     A7
Dads and kids, it's the best and
D7                 G            C
Baby we ain't lost one yet

The kids come up with their toys and scooters

Dads bring beer and tequila shooters

Campfire smoke just fillin' the air

It ain't the only thing smokin' there........

Chorus

The breakfast grill is all you can eat

Pancakes and eggs and last night's meat

After breakfast we go to the lake

Frito boats and all the beer you can take

Chorus

Kids are swimmin', playing wiffleball

They started out young and now they're tall

We spend the whole day out in the sun

Cause you can never have too much fun

Chorus

Saturday night at dinnertime

The kids are handling the hamburger line

Sunday dawn is early and clear

Not much eatin', one last beer

Chorus
C                                C7
We left their Mamas all alone,
                        F                            D7
Kids; what you see and hear well it DON'T GO HOME
C                     A7
Dads and kids, it's the best and
D7                 G            C
Baby we ain't lost one yet
