When I was a boy daddy was my guiding light We'd take walks and talk about fishing girls and life He'd help me with my homework cheer me up when I was down Best friend that I ever had I miss havin' him around He'd say do the very best you can with all that you've been blessed And if the load's too great for you the Lord will do the rest Keep one thing in mind if all else should fail You can't control the wind but you can adjust the sail Daddy lost his job when the factory closed Times were hard bills to pay he was troubled and it showed But he said son don't worry it's all to no avail We can't control the wind but we can adjust the sail I think of his advice when life turns its back on me There is no mountain I can't climb if I start down on my knees I'll do the very best I can with all that I've been blessed And if the load's too great for me the Lord will do the rest I'll keep one thing in mind if all else should fail I can't control the wind but I can adjust the sail No I can't control the wind but I can adjust the sail
