Well, I gave up trying to find ya
But that don't mean I never wonder who you are
You weren't around to take me fishing
Teach me how to ride a bike or drive a car
Did you ever give a damn about
Who I'd become how I'd turn out
Or did you think I'm better without you
Is that the way the story goes
You're someone I will never know
Now tell me what am I supposed to do
Ain't that so sad
Stranger dad
I close my eyes and try to picture
What kind of guy could make my mamma fall
But when news came of a due date
How that same sweet charming guy could just up and walk
You should know the man that I call dad
Would never walk away like that
Were you too young to understand back then
If you'd only known the mess you'd leave
Or all the holes you left in me
I wonder if you'd do it all again
Ain't that so sad
Stranger dad
Stranger dad
Stranger dad
Seven billion strangers on the planet
One of them is my old man and
No one's ever hurt me quite as bad
No, no one like my dear old stranger dad
Well, I gave up trying to find ya
But that don't mean I never wonder who you are
