[00:00:15] Daddy cut my hair

[00:00:19] Didn't care for style

[00:00:22] He'd just snip and snip

[00:00:25] And sweep it in a pile

[00:00:29] I could not keep still

[00:00:33] But he would understand

[00:00:36] Some things are just known

[00:00:39] Between a boy and a man

[00:00:45] Right there in the middle

[00:00:48] Of our kitchen's cluttered floor

[00:00:51] In the middle of the fifties

[00:00:55] In between a couple wars

[00:00:58] He'd get out his old scorched

[00:01:01] Shirt and wrap it round my neck

[00:01:05] And he would be so close to me

[00:01:09] I'd smell the coffee on his breath

[00:01:13] He would be so close to me

[00:01:21] We had a fallin' out

[00:01:24] I don't remember why

[00:01:27] But every time I think on it

[00:01:30] There's water in my eyes

[00:01:34] We said some awful things

[00:01:38] He ordered me to leave

[00:01:41] For years

[00:01:42] My sister wrote about

[00:01:44] How hard my mother grieved

[00:01:50] Second tour of duty

[00:01:53] When the thrill had long been gone

[00:01:56] I started giving haircuts

[00:01:59] To my buddies there in Nam

[00:02:03] The wire came on Friday

[00:02:06] I was cutting Jo Jo's hair

[00:02:10] We buried mom on Wednesday

[00:02:13] Dad was happy I was there

[00:02:18] We buried mom on Wednesday

[00:02:27] He never did remarry

[00:02:30] Traveled quite a bit

[00:02:34] As a father still some distance

[00:02:37] But as a grandpa quite a hit

[00:02:41] The stroke was unexpected

[00:02:44] There is so much to relearn

[00:02:47] He gets around with just a cane

[00:02:51] But his speech has not returned

[00:03:15] Now I cut daddy's hair

[00:03:18] He still don't care for style

[00:03:22] I snip and snip the memories

[00:03:25] And I sweep them in a pile

[00:03:30] I don't say a word

[00:03:33] He smiles when I'm done

[00:03:37] Some things are just known

[00:03:39] Between a father and his son

[00:03:46] Right there in the middle

[00:03:49] Of our kitchen's cluttered floor

[00:03:53] In my middle forties

[00:03:56] I feel the ache once more

[00:03:59] For all the years

[00:04:01] Our anger kept us far apart

[00:04:06] Thank God that there's forgiveness to mend a broken heart

[00:04:13] Thank God that there's forgiveness
