KEEPER OF THE STARS Andrea Pearson/Carolyn Dawn Johnson
my daddy's an action figure
my daddy's superman
mama says he can fly just like an eagle
well today we'll watch him land
I'm holding this little flag
the one where I learned to count stars
mama says there's one for every State
that's why daddy works so hard
he's coming in on a big shiny airplane
and i'm finally gonna see him today .. did you know...
(Chorus)
My daddy fights for something we call freedom
it makes me sad sometimes but mama says our Country needs him
he's got a job that takes him far
the defender of the red and white stripes
he's the keeper of the stars
mama did my hair today
i picked out my favorite bows
then i watched her put on her red lipstick
and some pretty dress up clothes
We made a great big sign
saying "daddy welcome home!"
and i used up a whole jar of sparkles..
that way daddy's name would glow
i'm gonna hold it way up high in the sky
i'm gonna yell his name with all of my might
(Chorus)
My daddy fights for something we call freedom
it makes me sad sometimes but mama says our Country needs him
he's got a job that takes him far
the defender of the red and white stripes
he's the keeper of the stars
