My Father was a preacher and teacher but he never prayed
He told me all things I shouldn't do and all the things I shouldn't say
My Mother was a sister but she never broke the golden rule
She gave me all the things Ill ever need and probably never use.

Heyo was there ever any doubt
Heyo We used to scream and shout it
Heyo was there ever time to sing?
Heyo Run around the ring

One day my brother Davey joined the Navy and he went to sea
He told me about that he tried to help but couldnt see
My father told me one day I would be a man
Even though its hard I do the best I can

Heyo was there ever any doubt
Heyo We used to scream and shotu it
Heyo was there ever time to sing?
Heyo Run around the ring
