Lyrics
[Verse 1] There's a man in my house, he's so big and strong Goes to work each day and he stays all day long Comes home each night, looking tired and beat He sits down at the dinner table and has a bite to eat [Verse 2] Never a frown, always a smile When he says to me, "How's my child?" I said that I've been studying hard all day in school Trying very hard to understand the golden rule [Chorus] I think I'll color him father I think I'll color him love I'm gonna color him father I think I'll color him love [Verse 3] He says education is a thing to complete Because without it, life just ain't very sweet I love this man and I don't know why Except I'll need his strength until the day I die [Chorus] I think I'll color him father I'm gonna color him love I've got to color him father I think I'll color him love [Verse 4] Our real old man, he got killed in the war Mom and seven kids couldn't have gotten very far She said to God she could never love again And then, there he stood, with that big wide grin [Bridge] He married my mother, he took us in And now we belong to the man with that big wide grin [Chorus] I've got to color him father I'm gonna color him love I've got to color him father Believe I'll color him love
