I've been a rascal
from the day I was born
And oh, what a good life I've had
I've got more memories
than leaves on the trees
And I owe it all to my dad
My daddy was a broad -minded man
And he had him on his mind all the time
I want to be like Dad in every way I can
I try to be a broad -minded man
I've lived in haste, attempting to taste
Every drop of life's sweet wine
So if there's anything you can name,
I ain't done
It's because I haven't had the time
I've got a woman who don't understand
She calls my life a shame
And throws up a howl
every time I'm on the prowl
And I'm sure my mama did the same
My daddy was a broad -minded man
He had him on his mind all the time
I want to be like Dad in every way I can
I try to be a broad -minded
man
I hope there ain't a girl
anywhere in this world
who's been hurt by
something that I've done.
If I've caused a tear to fall,
then I'm sorry for it all,
cause I swear it was all done and fun.
My daddy was a broad -minded man.
He had them on his mind all the time.
I want to be like that in every way I can
I try to be a broad -minded man
I try to be a broad -minded man
