The Dad Life

June 16, 2019

Ron


It's the dad life, it's the dad life. To all the Thug-life dads out there. I have to say I'm a little obsessed with the perfection of this one.




[Dedicated to Stephen R. You checked out today for greener pastures elsewhere, but you were a loyal friend with an amazing heart, buddy. Few people in my life have brought as much laughter, wit, adventure as you, and as much opportunity for me to play out some of my dreams, frankly. I'm forever grateful for your friendship, Steve. Godspeed.]


LYRICS:


Ha ha

This is dad life

It's how we live

24/7, 365

Check me


Gas station glasses

Don't care what the masses

Think about me wit my sweet goatee

I'm rockin' my Dockers

With a cuff and a crease

I got that St. John's Bay

And a clip for my piece


I look nice

I got dozens of dollars

And that's right

It goes straight to my daughters and my wife

I'm a miracle dad

Makin' magic with the checkbook is a talent I have


I roll hard in the yard

With a 60-inch cut

Zero turn radius

My neighbors say what?

They be drivin' by

Peepin' my landscape

Yo, these greens got nothin' on my manscape


Hydrangeas (what), Begonias (naw)

Crape Myrtle (tight), ornamental turtle!

Hold up Is that a weed in my fescue?

Aw naw, Round Up to the rescue


It's the dad life, it's the dad life

Take my daughty to the potty, it's the dad life

(bringin' home the bacon)

It's the dad life, it's the dad life

Shootin' vids of the kids, it's the dad life


Roll up to the splash pad, 10 AM

My whole entourage

Hops out the minivan

We splishy splashy for an hour or two

Then it's back to the house

Preppin' for the barbeque


Brats, dogs, rack of ribs, whateva (tight)

Get me on the Weber Man,

Nobody does it betta

Call me lord of the grill

I'm king of the coals

Nana's secret recipe, you know how I roll


1080p, 16x9

I'm rockin' man cave status

With a screen like mine

Keep your peanut butter hands

Off my 50-inch Vizio

Pop up the corn, roll the Disney video


{ "A whole new world..." }


We got Aladdin, Jasmine

Abu, the genie (hey)

With kids like mine, everybody wants to be me

Sing a night-night song and then it's off to bed

This is the dad life, no more to be said


It's the dad life, it's the dad life

Hit the mall, coaching ball, it's the dad life

(bringin' home the bacon)

It's the dad life, it's the dad life

Playing rough, fixing stuff, it's the dad life

(bringin' home the bacon)

It's the dad life, it's the dad life

Yeah, you know how we do it

It's the dad life
