Song Lyrics from our Fathers and Special Carers Assembly Performance

After a spectacular performance at last week’s Fathers and Special Carers Assembly, we would like to share the lyrics that the Year 2 Neighbourhood wrote with Deb so that families can enjoy singing it at home! Enjoy!!

 

I’ve Got You Babe   Sonny and Cher

 

VERSE 1

G                                         C

They say we’re young and we don’t know

      G                       C F   D

We won’t find out until we grow

       G                      C       

Well I don’t know if all that’s true

           G                       C      F      D

Cause we’ve got Carer’s, Mums and Dads and You

G       C                G              C              G

Dad           I got you Dad          I got you Dad

 

 

VERSE 2

            G                               C

You’re big and strong, you rock me to sleep

         G                       C                F             D

Your gentle song…   leaves me counting sheep

  G                              C

You rescue me from up a tree         

       G                     C             F            D

You find the toilet when we need to wee  

G       C                G              C              G

Dad           I got you Dad         I got you Dad   

  

 

BRIDGE

       Am                 D

I got flowers in the spring

        Am              D

I got you to carry everything 

                           G                      C

And when I’m sad you’re a clown

                  C                                  D

And if I get scared you’re always around

 

 

VERSE 3

Come kick a football in Princes Park

You even take a mark although it’s dark.

Then put your little hand in mine

There ain’t no hill or mountain we can’t climb

Dad,  I got you Dad,   I got you Dad 

 

CODA

I got you to hold my hand         I got you to understand

I got you to walk with me          I got you to talk with me

I got you to kiss goodnight        I got you to hold me tight

I got you I won’t let go               I got you to love me so

I got you Dad,  I got you Mum,    I got Carers, 

I got everyone,          (slower) I got you Dad
