Well it's hard to raise a boy into a man
Even as you lead him by the hand
Try to teach him everything you know
And let him understand you love him so
Cause he's not just a part of you
He's everything you are
And you're the one he looks up to
And you're his guiding star
But it's hard to raise a boy into a man
Listen to him closely all you can
Let him teach you everything he knows
Learn from one another as he grows
He's not just a part of you
He's everything you are
And you're the one he looks up to
And you're his guiding star
Well it's hard to raise a woman from a girl
She's much more than ponytails and curls
A waking talking special work of art
With everything she needs to steal you heart
And she's not just a part of you
She's everything you are
And you're the one she looks up to
And you're guiding star
Still it's hard to raise a woman from a girl
You can't buy her love with diamonds and pearls
Got to give her what's inside of you
If you want to know her love is true
She's not just a part of you
She's everything you are
And you're the one she looks up to
And you're her guiding star
Calling all fathers home
Better come take care of your own
Calling all fathers home
Don't let their little hearts turn to stone
Calling all fathers home
Better come take care of your own
Calling all fathers home
Don't let their heats turn to stone
Calling all fathers home
You can't raise you kids while you're gone
Calling all fathers home
Do it now before your chance is blown
Calling all fathers home
Calling all fathers home
Calling all fathers home .............
