    Jimmy Wayne "I love you this much"

    He can't remember

    The times that he thought

    Does my daddy love me?

    Probably not

    That didn't stop him

    From wishing that he did

    Didn't keep him from wanting

    Or worshipping him

    He guesses he saw him

    About once a year

    He could still feel the way he felt

    Standing in tears

    Stretching his arms out

    As far as they'd go

    Whispering daddy

    I want you to know

    [Chorus:]

    I love you this much

    And i'm waiting on you

    To make up your mind

    Do you love me too?

    How ever long it takes

    I'm never giving up no matter what

    I love you this much

    He grew to hate him for what he had done

    'cause what kind of father

    Could do that to his son?

    He said 'damn you daddy'

    The day that he died

    The man didn't blink

    But the little boy cried

    [Chorus:]

    I love you this much

    And i'm waiting on you

    To make up your mind

    Do you love me too?

    How ever long it takes

    I'm never giving up no matter what

    I love you this much

    Half way through the service

    While the choir sang a hymn

    He looked up above the preacher

    And he sat and stared at him

    He said

    'forgive me father'

    When he realized

    That he hadn't been unloved

    Or alone all his life

    His arms were stretched out

    As far as they'd go

    Nailed to the cross

    For the whole world to know

    [Chorus:]

    I love you this much

    And i'm waiting on you

    To make up your mind

    Do you love me too?

    How ever long it takes

    I'm never giving up no matter what

    I love you this much

    Walk a little straighter- billy currington

    I remember looking up

    To look up to him

    And I remember most the time

    He wasn't there

    I'd be waiting at the door

    When he got home at night

    He'd pass me by to go to pass out in his chair

    And I'd say

    Walk a little straighter daddy

    You're swaying side to side

    You're footsteps make me dizzy

    And no matter how I try

    I keep tripping and stumbling

    If you'd look down here you'd see

    Walk a little straighter daddy

    You're leading me

    He stumbled in the gym

    On graduation day

    And I couldn't help but feel

    So ashamed

    And I wasn't surprised a bit

    When he didn't stay

    He stumbled out before they called my name

    And I thought

    Walk a little straighter daddy

    You're swaying side to side

    It's not just me who's watching

    you've caught everybody's eye

    And you're tripping and stumbling

    and even though I've turned 18

    Walk a little straighter daddy

    You're still leading me

    The old mans still like he always was

    But I love him anyway

    If I've learned one thing from him

    Its my kids will never have to say

    Walk a little straighter daddy

    You're swaying side to side

    You're footsteps make me dizzy

    And no matter how I try

    I keep tripping and stumbling

    if you'd look down here you'd see

    Walk a little straighter daddy

    You're leading me

    Yeah walk a little straighter daddy

    You're leading me

    The dollar- Jamie Johnson

    Daddy hugs his little man

    says son I’ve got to go

    and he pulls out of the drive and disappears

    as they walk back in the house

    the young boy asks his mama

    where does daddy go when he leaves here

    mama tells her little man

    your daddy’s got a job

    and when he goes to work they pay him for his time

    well the young boy gets to thinking

    and he heads up to his bedroom

    and comes running back with a quarter and four dimes

    (chorus:)

    and says mama how much time will this buy me

    is it enough to take me fishing or throw a football in the street

    if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need

    to spend some time with me

    the young boy tells his mama

    now I know daddy’s busy

    cause most times when he gets home it’s dark outside

    but tell him I’ve got me some pennies

    saved up from the tooth fairy

    and I keep ‘em in my piggy bank and I believe there’s thirty-five

    (chorus:)

    and mama how much time will that buy me

    is it enough to take me camping in a tent down by the creek

    if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need

    to spend some time with me

    mama how much time will this buy me

    is it enough for just an afternoon a day or a whole week

    if I’m a little short then how much more does daddy need

    to spend some time with me

    mama takes her little man

    sets him on her lap

    and starts dialing up some numbers on the phone

    she says daddy come home early

    you don’t have to chase that dollar

    cause your little man has got one here at home

    Your avatar looks angry. It freaks me out... The only song I know like this is called "I've Been Watching You", and it's by Rodney Adkins. He's a country singer. Hope you find the song you want. :)
