That's My Job (Live)

I woke up cryin' late at night - when I was very young
I had dreamed my father - had passed away and gone
My world revolved around him - I couldn't lie there anymore
So I made my way down the mirrowed hall and tapped upon his door.

And I said, 'Daddy, I'm so afraid!
How would I go on, with you gone that way?
Don't wanna cry anymore
So may I stay with you?'

And he said,
'That's my job, that's what I do
Everything I do is because of you
To keep you safe with me ...
That's my job, you see.'

Later we barely got along - this teenage boy and he
Most of the fights it seems - were over different dreams
We each held for me ...
He wanted knowledge and learning - I wanted to fly out west
'Said I could make it out there - if I just had the fare
I got half, will you loan me the rest?'

And I said, 'Daddy, I'm so afraid
Theres no guarentee in the plans I've made
And if I should fail, who will pay my way back home?'

And he said,
'That's my job, that's what I do
Ev'rything I do is because of you
To keep you safe with me ...
That's my job, you see.'

Every person carves his spot - and fills the hole with life
And I pray someday I might - light as bright as he.

Woke up early one bright fall day - read the tragic news
After all my travels, I settled down - within a mile or two
I make my livin' with words and rhymes - and all the tragedies
Should go into my head and out instead - as bits of poetry.

But I say, 'Daddy I'm so afraid
How will I go on - with you gone this way
How can I come up - with a song to say, 'I love you.'

'That's my job, that's what I do
Ev'rything I do is because of you
To keep you safe with me ...
That's my job, you see.'

'Ev'rything I do is because of you
To keep you safe with me.'
