Clayton

I remember climbing up into that passenger seat

Going to work with Daddy, feeling complete

Rolling down the highway in the morning glow

With Conway Twitty singing on the radio

You were larger than life, steering with a steady hand

The most reliable father, a hardworking man

Oh, Clayton, you're the one who built my world

And no matter how I grow, I'll always be Daddy's girl

You're my protector, my provider, my number one

The safest place to be when the day is done

With a warm, gentle heart and a joke to make me smile

I'll love you forever, every single mile

Out in the garage, wiping grease off our clothes

Handing you the tools, learning everything you know

Building things together on the concrete floor

Fixing up the neighbors' cars right outside the door

You always had the time, the first one there to mend

A father to me, and a helping hand to a friend

Oh, Clayton, you're the one who built my world

And no matter how I grow, I'll always be Daddy's girl

You're my protector, my provider, my number one

The safest place to be when the day is done

With a warm, gentle heart and a joke to make me smile

I'll love you forever, every single mile

When we'd pack the truck up and head out to the pines

Camping in the quiet, leaving the rush behind

Safe beneath the stars, breathing in the open air

I never had a worry as long as you were there

Oh, Clayton, you're the one who built my world

And no matter how I grow, I'll always be Daddy's girl

You're my protector, my provider, my number one

The safest place to be when the day is done

With a warm, gentle heart and a joke to make me smile

I'll love you forever, Daddy, every single mile
