Can't Control the Wind |
When I was a boy daddy was my guiding light |
We’d take walks and talk about fishing girls and life |
He’d help me with my homework cheer me up when I was down |
Best friend that I ever had I miss havin' him around |
He’d say do the very best you can with all that you’ve been blessed |
And if the load’s too great for you the Lord will do the rest |
Keep one thing in mind if all else should fail |
You can’t control the wind but you can adjust the sail |
Daddy lost his job when the factory closed |
Times were hard bills to pay he was troubled and it showed |
But he said son don’t worry it’s all to no avail |
We can’t control the wind but we can adjust the sail |
I think of his advice when life turns its back on me |
There is no mountain I can’t climb if I start down on my knees |
I’ll do the very best I can with all that I’ve been blessed |
And if the load’s too great for me the Lord will do the rest |
I’ll keep one thing in mind if all else should fail |
I can’t control the wind but I can adjust the sail |
No I can’t control the wind but I can adjust the sail |
