lyrics

I didn’t drink much or stay out late at night
tried to pay the bills on time and bring the kids up right
Looking back I I wish I’d been, bad a little more
But thank God she left them kids when she walked out the door

I’m a single father, times are hard
checking out the single moms in the school yard
the teacher, she talks to me so fine
the boys drop by and say 'how you getting?' and I tell em
We're doing fine.

The house is clean enough, well clean enough for us
the homework's done the clothes are clean
with no fighting and no fuss
and you can have a sugar free cola
anytime you like
you can wake me up in the morning or anytime at night

I’m a single father, you've got odd sock
but you've got a lot of gamer points on your xbox
peace and tranquility is what we find
the boys drop by and say 'how you getting?' and I tell em
We're doing fine.

about

Chris Speck Hull, UK

English folk and country singer and writer.

All the music here is original apart from 'The Game of All Fours' which was adapted from a traditional English folk song.

I like chips, mushy peas, warm beer, a red headed girl and my kids. Not in that order of course and some I like more than others.
