Eddie - Erica Campbell

He was a muscle bound man with a bible in his hand

He had a whole lotta dreams and a whole lotta plans

Not a buncha money but a whole buncha love mm

But when it came to faith he had more than enough

Oh his name was

(Eddie) talking bout a praying man he was

(Eddie) tried to keep it strong when times got tough

(Eddie) thank you for raising all of us

(Eddie) but you just wasn’t here long enough

If I could just talk to you one more time

I would tell you I was listening all the time

Even when I rolled my eyes hey

Daddy I knew you was talking right

I remember growing up as a little girl

And watching you pray and watching you go to work

Then you would come home and laugh and play with us

You wasn’t too tough to love your girls

And you taught us how to love God

And you taught us how to be strong

And even though you not here no more

I still got you in my heart daddy

And I’ll never forget what taught me

I just wanna make you proud

That’s all I wanna do

I wanna be a soldier, just like my daddy

You was the best daddy you was the best

I thank God for you for the rest of my life
