Thanks, Dad (Father's Day 1988)

Dear Dad;Thanks for the memories

They're here in my heart

And I know you and me

Will never, never part

Thanks for the melodies

In warm summer days

Thanks for giving to me

In your special ways

Thanks for the smiles

And the joys

And the toys

Every Christmas

And Easter

And birthday

You made the best you could

Thanks, for the while

We've been together

Will always be good

Thanks for the card, Dad

Thanks for the back yard, Dad

Thanks for the call, Dad

Thanks for the rides and the trips to the mall, Dad

Thanks for the love when things are hard, Dad

Thanks for it all, Dad

But most of all, Dad

Thanks
