I haven't always been a single man

And I haven't always lived up here

Along with all these other single men

With a ring around the bath and a cigarette butt in my beer



I haven't always been a lonely man

And I haven't always lived alone

As you know I haven't always drunk this much

But hey before you cut me down

Just try standing in my shoes

Because I don't have to hear one word of this, no



On any other day

I might care what you say

But every Saturday is Father's day

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But I've got one who calls me Dad



And all the other blokes who live up here

Know how to leave a man alone

They're not a bad ol' bunch who live up here

Ah, but you know that it's not family, it's not home



What of the darling wife that once I had?

Well I'm pleased to say that she still talks to me

But I try not to think of what went wrong

Because if I say that i was right

She might say that she was right

And the only rights I care about are visiting rights, yeah



On any other day

I might care what you say

But every Saturday is Father's day

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But I've got one who calls me Dad



We go where he wants to go (He calls me Dad)

We do what he wants to do (He calls me Dad)

I tell everything I know (He calls me Dad)

Cos I'd do anything to prove

Yeah, I'd do anything to prove



That every Saturday

I will do just what he says

Because every single Saturday is Father's day

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But it don't feel so bad, when he calls me

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But it don't feel half bad, when he calls me

You might call it sad

You might call me mad

But God I feel so great... when he calls me Dad



Yeah, he calls me Dad



I haven't always been a single man...
