Are there any country songs about growing up without a father?

Are there any country songs about growing up without a father? Kind of like Kellie Pickler- I Wonder but about a father. Or maybe something like Brad Paisley- He Didn't Have to Be.

    yeah it is called i love you this much by jimmy wayne

    He can't remember the times that he thought

    Does my daddy love me?

    Probably not

    But that didn't stop him from wishing that he did

    Didn't keep from wanting or worshiping 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

    I love you this much and I'm waiting on you

    To make up your mind, do you love me too?

    However 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 a 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

    I love you this much and I'm waiting on you

    To make up your mind, do you love me too?

    However 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 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

    I love you this much and I'm waiting on you

    To make up your mind, do you love me too?

    However long it takes

    I'm never giving up

    No matter what, I love you this much
