Sunday Song Lyric:
What would make a good Sunday Song Lyric for Father's Day? How about "Father Knows Best," by Ricky Skaggs? I am not the biggest country music fan, and I don't know too many of Skaggs' songs, but it is hard not to be impressed by his commercial and artistic success. "Father Knows Best" appeared on Skaggs' 1991 album My Father's Son. The song was written by Lenny LeBlanc and Mike Curtis. Here is a taste of the lyrics.
Daddy told me not to ride my bike across that rocky creek
You know it's swift in places and son it's pretty deep
But hardheaded full of pride I went on anyway
And if daddy hadn't been watchin' me I wouldn't be here today.
Father knows best, father knows best
If he hadn't been lookin' out for me I'd be in such a mess
I swore from then on I would do just what he said
'Cause father knows best, father knows best.
