He Didn't Have To Be by Brad Paisley
When a single mom goes out on a date with
Somebody new
It always (1)__________ up feeling (2)________ like
A job interview
My momma used to wonder
If she'd ever meet someone
Who wouldn't find out about me and then
Turn around and run
I met the man I call my dad
When I was five years old

About three years ago
We had the perfect marriage but
We wanted (4)__________________ more
Now here I stand surrounded by our family and friends
Crowded 'round the nursery window
As they (5)__________ the baby in
And now, all of a sudden

All the things he did for me
Is I hope I'm at least
Half the dad that he didn't (8)________ to be
Because he didn't have to be
You know he didn't have to be
