Intro

Verse

Father Father Father

It's been a long time how are you doing?

How is your son how are his children?

 I bet they're just like me

You must be tired tired tired

Of hearing prayers like mine no need to answer

Nobody likes knowing that favors

 Are all they'll ever be

 But there's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl

And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world

If you would tell her it's your will for us to be together

(intro)

Father Father Father

You've seen me try and try to make her love me

I'd sell my soul to hear the one thing

She thinks she'll never say

But now it's Sunday Sunday Sunday

And her pretty voice is rising up to ask you

Like I once did like I'm about to

If you could show her the way

'Cause there's this girl this girl this girl this girl this girl

And I'd be the happiest backslider in the world

If you would tell her it's your will for us to be together

I would never bother you again

(intro x 3)

Father you of all gods ought to know how little to expect from people

But I think you might be pleasantly surprised to see what this girl

Would bring out of me
