"To Be A Papa" lyrics

"To Be A Papa"

Stay with me
For the road is long
And the winds are strong
And I'll stay with you
And hold my hand
And we'll do our dance
In our patchwork pants
We'll be side by side
Let the rain wash the dishes
And we'll twirl our hats
On our baseball bats
We'll be worlds away

My eyes are wet
In my solitude
With the weight of loving you
When the rent is due
And the world's so cold
And full of fanatics
Whether it's God or mathematics
But all shall be well
And we'll do our dance
When the bells go chiming
And the chimney smoke's climbing
We'll be worlds away

So stay with me
For the road is winding
And the winds are blinding
And I'll stay with you
And hold my hand
Through the goldenrod
And the plans of God
And the passing years
