WHAT A FATHER KNOWS
RIGHT AWAY THEY NEED PROTECTING
CUZ THERE’S DANGER ALL AROUND
BUT THEN THEY START A WALKING
AND THE RULES FIND NEW GROUND
AS THEY GO OUT IN THE WORLD
DISCOVERING THEIR SKIN
WILL THEY COME BACK HOME A RUNNING
WHEN THEY TAKE IT ON THE CHIN
WHAT A FATHER KNOWS
KEEP AWAY FROM UNDERTOWS
THE DEEP BLOOD CONNECTIONS
ALWAYS SHOW
EVERY GENERATION
THEY’D LIKE TO GET IT RIGHT
BUT BEING A DAD AIN’T EASY
CUZ IT’S NEVER BLACK AND WHITE
WHEN THEY’RE FLYING THEIR OWN KITES
WHAT A FATHER KNOWS
FROM HIS HEART DOWN TO HIS TOES
THE TRUE BLOOD CONNECTIONS
FOREVER GLOW
WHAT A FATHER KNOWS
THROUGH THE HOWLIN WINDS AND SNOWS
THE DEEP BLOOD CONNECTIONS
WITH HIGHS AND LOWS
WHAT A FATHER KNOWS
FROM HIS HEART THIS LIFE AROSE
TRUE BLOOD CONNECTIONS
‘LL NEVER CLOSE
Good one dude ! I got a tear in my eye. Some fine pickin’ too !
Your voice sounds relaxed. I like your slow vibrato.
Song feels personal to you and it comes through. HSW
Hey Helen,
Yours is still one of the finest nicknames I’ve ever heard.
Thanks much for the words on pickin and singin… not the bass playin?. It is a bit personal (the worry, the letting go, etc.), although it has occurred to us that this tune would be a really great one for a good lady singer. TPS
Tommy, Very nice song, heartfelt and smooth.
Beautiful!!
Hello Sammy,
Glad you’re listening, and thank you much for the kind words. Hope life is well for you.
Tom
Hello Thomas Robert,
Thank you, it is pretty, eh? How long have you been an internet anonymous time traveler?
Tom
Excellent. I can truly relate. Well placed harmonies too!!
Hey Mikey,
Thanks kindly. Yeah, those singers are comin along. They seem to be getting better as they spend more time with the guitarists and the bassist. Only a Gemini would know. “It’s getting betta all the time.”
The guitar is a magical thing in the right hands. Very nice job Tom!!!!! Really makes me think of the great relationship between my Dad and me and me and my three girls. Thanks again Mr. Tom!
Hey Dr. Joe,
It brings me great pleasure to hear the tune triggers your own thoughts over 3 generations. Thank you for being affected.
Tom
Beautiful song. Words/guitar work and the most important message : the power of family.!!!
Hey Diane,
Thank you again.
Family is where the story all starts, ain’t it?
Tom

Hello Mike,
