Daddy's Little Man

Shenandoah is an American country music group founded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama in 1984 by Marty Raybon (lead vocals, acoustic guitar), Ralph Ezell (bass guitar, backing vocals), Stan Thorn (keyboards, backing vocals), Jim Seales (lead guitar, backing vocals), and Mike McGuire (drums, background vocals). Thorn and Ezell left the band in the mid-1990s, with Rocky Thacker taking over on bass guitar; Keyboardist Stan Munsey joined the line up in 1995. The band split up in 1997 after Raybon left. Seals, Munsey and McGuire reformed the band in 2000 with lead singer Brent Lamb, who was in turn replaced by Curtis Wright and then by Jimmy Yeary. Ezell rejoined in the early 2000s, and after his 2007 death, he was replaced by Mike Folsom. more »

NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP
I PRAY TO THE LORD MY BABY'S SOUL TO KEEP
AND THAT'S ALL I ASK
HE BELIEVES IN THE GOLDEN RULE
SANTA AND THE OLE' LADY WHO LIVED IN A SHOE
I'M HIS GUIDING HAND AND HE'S MY BEST FRIEND

HE IS JUST A LITTLE BOY
WE BUILD BRIDGES FROM NOTHING MORE THAN TINKER-TOYS
THAT WE'LL CROSS AGAIN
HE STUMBLES THRU THE LIVING ROOM
DOING HIS BEST TO FILL HIS DADDY'S SHOES
GUESS HE WANT'S TO BE JUST LIKE ME

CHORUS
IN HIS EYES I'M A HERO
BUT HE DON'T KNOW HOW THAT SCARES ME
I'M SO MUCH LESS THAN A SUPER MAN
BUT FOR HIM I TRY TO BE
CAUSE ONE DAY HE'LL BE GONE SO FAR FROM HOME
TOO OLD TO HOLD MY HAND
BUT I'LL BE HIS BIGGEST FAN
AND HE'LL STILL BE DADDY'S LITTLE MAN

HE CLIMBS IN BED WITH MR. BEAR
AND CLOSES HIS EYES TO SAY HIS BED TIME PRAYERS
ANOTHER DAY IS THRU
HE SAYS “DADDY'S GREAT AND GOD IS GOOD
LET US THANK HIM FOR OUR FOOD”
AND GOD UNDERSTOOD
HE KNOWS HOW CHILDREN DO
GOD WAS A DADDY TOO

CHORUS
