Tip

I still think about the dust from our barrel racing days

And Sunday evenings at the mall in a happy weekend haze

Then we’d head back to the house and you’d fire up the grill

Watching NASCAR on the screen while the Sunday air was still

Those are the memories that built up my heart

With a dad who was there for us right from the start

Daddy, you’re my rock and my lifelong best friend

A father with a steady love on which I can depend

Jeremy, Amber, Bo, and me, we all know it’s true

Tip, we appreciate the life we owe to you

The best part of being your daughter, I swear

Is knowing what family means, because you were there

I know I don't get to see you as often as I'd choose

But my love for you, Daddy, is the strength that I use

When the distance gets heavy and I'm missing your smile

That love is the engine getting me through the miles

You gave me a foundation that is solid and deep

And a lifetime of lessons that I'm going to keep

Daddy, you’re my rock and my lifelong best friend

A father with a steady love on which I can depend

Jeremy, Amber, Bo, and me, we all know it’s true

Tip, we appreciate the life we owe to you

The best part of being your daughter, I swear

Is knowing what family means, because you were there

I respect and admire you more than anyone in this world

And I'll always be your grateful little girl

I love you more than anything, right through to the end

Daddy, you will always be my very best friend

Daddy, you’re my rock and my lifelong best friend

A father with a steady love on which I can depend

Jeremy, Amber, Bo, and me, we all know it’s true

Tip, we appreciate the life we owe to you

The best part of being your daughter, I swear

Is knowing what family means, because you were there

Yeah, knowing what true love means, because you were there
