so
Daddy came out
with his guitar in his hand
He said it's time you come with me and go out with the band
Everything I wanted was to be on stage with him
I've never been so nervous in my life
Every night I played with him he wore an eagle around his neck
On the last show he gave it to me and with a heavy heart he said
I'm not giving it up son,
I'm just setting you free
You're not just my son,
you're my best friend
There I was a nine year old playing Johnny Begun
Songs I'd never heard before,
doing the best that I could
He always gave me hope
that I'd be just like him
He's not just my dad, he's my best friend
Daddy is down
Please whisper your name I hold the time we had deep in my heart
I don't want you to go home and not hear me say
You're not just my dad, you're my best friend
And every night I'm on the stage I wear this
eagle around my neck You are my hero,
you're in my soul in these
two hands You always gave me hope that I'd be just like
you You're not just my dad,
you're my best friend
Oh,
you're not just my dad,
you're my best friend
You're my best friend
You're my best friend
You're my best friend
