Happy Birthday Dad!

Happy Birthday Dad.  I'm so glad that you are my Dad. Love, T

A Birthday Tribute (think Beatles Song)
When you get older losing your hair,
Many years years ago.
I'll be sending you a special valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of beer.

If I'd been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door,
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When you're sixty-four.

I'll be older too,
And if you say the word,
I could stay with you.

You could be handy, mending a fuse
When my lights have gone.
Mom can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a cart ride.

Doing the garden, digging the weeds,
Who could ask for more.
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When you're sixty-four.

Every summer we can go to Florida
Swim the Atlantic and surf the waves.
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Alaina, Addie & we'll wait and see!

Send me a postcard, drop me a line,
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away

Give me your answer, fill in a form
Dad for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me,
When your're sixty-four.
