When I was just a little boy Barely strong enough to stand I could always count on him Oh
He thought me everything I know And ’till this day it shows He was more than just a friend (Ah ah ah)
There were so many times I would doubt myself But his words were always there to help
How would it be? Where I am? If my father didn’t tell me To never say I can’t
He’d carry me And never let me fall Oh and the only thing he asked Right before he passed Was to never say you can’t
Oh Never say you can’t Oh oh oh Oh
So when last rain begins to fall And you’re out there on your own And you can’t see a thing No no no
Just find a voice that understands For me it was my old man Taught me to say the words I can Oh
There were so many times I would doubt myself But his words were always there to help How would it be? Where I am? If my father didn’t tell me To never say I can’t
He’d carry me And never let me fall Oh and the only thing he asked Right before he passed Was to never say you can’t
Everything he taught me would stay with me forever No I won’t forget a thing Oh because of dad I now know myself better And I hope I can do for him what he did for me
How would it be? Where I am? If my father didn’t tell me To never say I can’t
He’d carry me And never let me fall Oh and the only thing he asked Right before he passed Was to never say you can’t
