Lyrics:

We gathered with the lawyer for the reading of the will
Mama sat there quietly between all of us kids
Then he opened up the papers
And my father¡¯s words were read
You could have heard a pin drop
When we heard the things he said
To all my loving family I leave this old house
Just split up all the money and pass it all around
But now that that¡¯s all settled and it¡¯s all said and done
Here¡¯s a few things that I¡¯ll leave with each and everyone
To the boys I leave the family name, the honesty and pride
To both my precious girls, I leave a million lullabies
Sing them to your children and let them know you care
And take what strength I gave to you and be patient, kind and fair
To all I leave undying love, let no one shed a tear
Cause I was the luckiest man on earth in the time that I was here
And finally to mother who¡¯s love was ever true
The greatest a man can give, I leave my heart to you
We all just kind of sat there, not knowing what to say
Then mama looked at all of us and said, 'I¡¯d like to pray'
So right there in that office in words so soft and still
We all swore that we¡¯d honor the things in Daddy¡¯s will
