Hard Hats

I’m scared as hell
Don’t know where to turn
She’ll be here soon
There’s still so much to learn

Am I good enough
Will I ever be
I can’t screw this up
It’s getting harder to breathe

I call up my best buddy
Cause he’s been here before
I said man what do I do
And he said just one things for sure

CHORUS
You’re gonna be her teacher
Her protector
Her best friend and her mentor
Her shoulder to cry on
When everything is wrong
You’ll be her hero and her biggest fan
But you’re never gonna be just her dad
You’ll be fine as long as you understand
You’re gonna have to wear some hard hats

She’s so strong
Like she’s made for this
My beautiful wife
The mother of our first kid

She’s steady and calm
And I’m a nervous wreck
She leads my hand to the little heartbeat
Puts her arms around me and says

CHORUS

I’m not sure I’m ready
And I probably never will be
But I’ll do everything I can to be

CHORUS
Her teacher
Her protector
Her best friend and her mentor
Her shoulder to cry on
When everything is wrong
I’m gonna be her hero and her biggest fan
But I’m never gonna be just her dad
I’ll be fine as long cause now I understand
I’m gonna have to wear some hard hats
