Alex Hall (Country) - Dad Now

[Intro]
One, two, three

[Verse 1]
When did I become the one who couldn't talk at all?
She was crying in the bathroom, I was pacing in the hall
Took the test three times, every one pink lines
We were starting on a family sooner than we wished
Went from planning for a honeymoon to planning for a kid
Nine months fly by, first breath, first cry

[Chorus]
I guess time keeps on creeping
Maybe it happens while we're sleeping
Just last week I was in the backseat
Now it's both hands on the wheel
Life makes you grow up in a moment
Go from knowing it all to knowing
I don't know much and there's so much I still gotta figure out
I'll do my best 'cause I guess I'm dad now

[Verse 2]
When did I become the one who gets to wear a cape?
Fix everything with superglue and keep food on three plates
Working overtime to keep on the lights
I'm a bucking bronco, every time you ask
It used to be my old man's job when [?] broke his back
The way it's breaking mine, daddy one more [?]
[Chorus]
I guess time keeps on creeping
Maybe it happens while we're sleeping
Just last week I was in the backseat
Now it's both hands on the wheel
I've gone from playing ball to coaching
Go from knowing it all to knowing
I don't know much and there's so much I still gotta figure out
I'll do my best 'cause I guess I'm dad

[Bridge]
When did I become the one who gets to stand this tall?
Raising little pencil marks crawling up the wall

[Chorus]
I guess time keeps on creeping
Even while I hold 'em sleeping
Just last week I was in the backseat
Now it's both hands on the wheel
Life makes you grow up in a moment
Go from knowing it all to knowing
I don't know much and there's so much I still gotta figure out
I'll do my best 'cause I guess I'm dad now
I'll do my best 'cause I guess I'm dad now
Ehh-yeah
