My dear hard workin' daddy works his life away for us

Workin' on the job or either on the farm
Eb                    Bb
Trying to provide for the family that he loves

Daddy's workin' boots have served as his foundation
    Eb           Bb
Though just like him, they're tired and worn

For years they've helped him stand
Eb                     Bb
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation

They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man
