LYRIC FOR SALE

By Bernard Morris

(verse 1)
My Dad taught me how to ride
A bike when I was five
When I was five it was the best
Time to be alive
I felt safe with training wheels
As I rode in the park
Me and Daddy we stayed out
Until it got quite dark

(verse 2)
I remember when I was a
Seven year old boy
Holding Daddy’s hand in summer
Every day a joy
Playing football on the back field
Jerseys for goalposts
Having fun on Halloween
Pretending to be ghosts

(chorus)
Lots of good times
Lots of smiles
That was me and Dad
Me and Dad we had such fun
The best of times we had

(verse 3)
A chem-ist-ry set my Dad
Bought me when I was eight
We created colourful crystals
And it was great
Chemical reactions filled us both
With lots of joy
Finding out why rockets burn
Was fun for a small boy

(verse 4)
Me and Dad went camping
And he taught me how to build
A fire and we roasted marshmallows
I was thrilled
Me and Dad were cozy by
The campfire all night
With his spooky stories
He gave me a great big fright

(chorus)
Lots of good times
Lots of smiles
That was me and Dad
Me and Dad we had such fun
The best of times we had

(instrumental bridge)

(verse 5)
We went rock climbing when I was ten
It was just fab
Adrenaline pumped around my body
It was mad
I was scared at first but my Dad
Made me feel real safe
I conquered my fears with a
Great big smile on my face

(verse 6)
When I was twelve me and my Dad
We started to paint
Together we painted pictures
Van Gogh son you ain’t
My Dad said to me when I showed
Him my first portrait
He showed me his and I said
That’s not exactly great

(chorus)
Lots of good times
Lots of smiles
That was me and Dad
Me and Dad we had such fun
The best of times we had

(chorus)
Lots of good times
Lots of smiles
That was me and Dad
Me and Dad we had such fun
The best of times we had
