Best Man Lyrics - Off To Join The World - Blaine Larsen

My Mama got married to someone I barely knew 

They had me then had my sister too 

I was too young to understand why he left 

But how it broke my Mama's heart, I'll never forget 

It was 3 years before she met somebody new 

And though I didn't have much to compare him to 

He was the best man my Mama ever loved 

Not the kind that walks away but the kind that don't give up 

Devoted and true, someone to look up to 

Even a boy of 8 could understand he was the best man 

He called me his son and I called him dad 

He was like no friend that I had ever had 

He taught me how to drive a nail and build a go-cart 

And how to love a woman with all of my heart 

One night we watched him get down on one knee 

And ask Mama to be his wife, then asked me 

To be the best man and I stood by his side 

As he lifted the veil of that beautiful bride 

He said "I do", then she did too, as she walked 

Back down the aisle holding hands with the best man 

He said "I do" then she did too and she walked 

Back down the aisle holding hands with the best man 

Dad, you're still the best man
