Saturday's Father

She wakes them in the early light
They're going to go away
She dresses them in party clothes
She ties their hair in colored bows
Today is Father's Day
He said he'll be there right on time
He'll be there come what may
He'll take them to a puppet show
The little one can't wait to go
Today is Father's Day

See them always smiling
Full of games to play
Fun to have a daddy
Every Saturday

He brings them home by suppertime
To where he used to be
And so they kiss him on the cheek
She sees him off but they don't speak

Today is Father's Day
Today is Father's Day
