My father is my idol ~ he's worth a million bucks

His fortune isn't money ~ it didn't come from luck

His mind that makes decisions ~ about the way he lives his life

Cannot make better choices ~ than his friends, career and wife

His heart that cares so very much ~ sometimes tough to see...I'm told

But if you get to know him ~ you'll see it's lined with gold

His soul; it is an image ~ "Pieces of Eight"

And if you are a believer ~ you'll know that he is a saint
