Paul Anka - PAPA - "Son, I'm proud the way you've grown Make it on your own. Oh, I'll be O.K. alone."


Everyday my papa would work
To hope to make ends meet
To see that we would eat
Keep those shoes upon my feet
Every night my papa would take and
Tuck me in my bed
Kiss me on my head
Growing up with them was easy
The time had flew on by
The years began to fly
They aged and so did I
And I could tell
That mama she wasn't well
Papa knew and deep down so did she
So did she
When she died
Papa broke down and cried
And all he could say was, "God, why her? Take me!"
Everyday he sat there sleeping in his walking chair
He never went upstais
All Because she wasn't there
Then one day my Papa said
"Son, I'm proud the way you've grown
Make it on your own.
Oh, I'll be O.K. alone."
He said, "There are things that you must do"
He said, "There's places you must see"
And his eyes were sad as he
As he said goodbye to me
Every time I kiss my children
Papa's words ring true
He said, "Children live through you.
Let them grow! They'll leave you, too"
I remember every word Papa used to say
I kiss my kids and pray
That they'll think of me
Oh how I pray
They will think of me
That way
Someday

my mum died 45 days ago and my dad died 26 years ago...I am crying...still...
237
this is a true song of every man like me,my god is my parents,please respect your parents they are the only true friends of yours,

There is nothing like Father and Mother, nothing can replace them, look after them when they are alive, in return your children will look after you.

This song is really touching. It touched the core of my heart. Thanks Mr. Paul Anka and your team.

This song is such a special song to me cause it stir up my emotions about my dad. I have the greatest dad in the whole wide world(I'm sure there are dads like him out there too but I'm just expressing my gratitude🙏) My dad would do everything for me & my sinlings. Not only he would sacrifice his life for his family & children but he has a kindest heart he help everyone even strangers too. He's not my dad but also a mom, a friend to me too. Growing up as Asian American the mom only care about her son & mistreated/ abused her daughters and the only person who protects, love, caring with unconditon love is this dad. He's funny, caring, always put others people first, very skillful, he can cook, garden, do construction works, fishing, hunting etc. After he loses his business & lost almost everything but that didn't break him, he stands up & rebuild his life so his children could have a good life. Even he's no longer rich he still helps people especially to the new immigrants, the elderly, the disabled. He's the favorite person in the family, everyone-his children, his grandkids & his friends adored & admired him. Thank you for being a great father, a great human being , a good role model for us dad. I love you & appreciated you more than I can say. Thank you🙏🙏🙏wishing you healthy, happy & longivity.

The emotions and maturity penetrates from this singing, it is light years apart from Paul's 1974 original singing, whence he was not a papa yet. Alas, It brings tears whenever one listens.

The song I often played when I was young.The Paul Anka Long Playing Record is still with me and I love it.

Oh my god. This song is amazing. I started to listen to this song when I was a baby. When I listen to this song, I experience the most and my emotions just suddenly change. It's good to have our memory reminded but sometimes, it just suddenly turns my emotion on a negative way. SAD :(((((((. RESPECT AND LOVE YOUR PARENTS CUZ THEY CAN BE GONE ANYTIME. Who knows?

My god, the best version ever !

I love this song and I love my father forever <3 My father is my blood, my vein, my safety, my smile, my joy and love. My mother is the feeling when all feelings are gone and my mother is the tears when all tears are gone. My parents are my happiness and my satisfaction. I love my parents <3
