Lyrics

Real Dad
By Gary Skankey

She ripped the letter open her heart skipped a beat
Her stepdad watched with a sad smile
(He said) After years of searchin' you two will finally meet
I'm really happy for you child

She hugged the only father she'd ever known
He'd always loved her like she was his own
But still she had to find her...

Real dad, real dad
He left her as a babe now something drew her back
To her real dad, real dad
She's gonna make up for the years she would have had
With her real dad

Her stepdad gave her a good life, that's for sure
From birthday parties to nature hikes
He was there for cheerleader try outs, flew kites with her
Even taught her how to ride a bike

Thinkin' about that almost made her change her mind
But blood running deep was drivin' her to find
The man she was sure was her ...

Drivin' off to bring, her long search to an end, those memories poured into her mind
As she pondered them, it struck her like lightnin', they were given her by the man she just left behind
See it's caring that makes a...

Real dad, real dad
She turned back, jumped out, threw her arms around her...

Real dad, real dad
She said you gave yourself to me, gave it all you had
And you're my real dad, real dad
You loved me from a babe and I'll never forget that
You loved me from a babe and I'll never forget that
'Cause he's her real dad
