This little song for my father Does things that no other can do As I sing it to you It has a rhythm and rhyme That will fasten his memory in time As his beauty shines through For through my mind and soul My heart will always hold A special place for him It's true We bow our heads as we pray Every day's father day let's review All that he mean to you Our mother's love is real nice But our dad sacrificed for us too Let us give him his due We're very proud to be In his biography We sing this song for him And you

i gave this cd to my buddy pete's father, chic almost 10 years ago. he was in his early 80's at the time and knew many of the singing greats back in vegas during the late 50s & 60s. after listening to it, he said "she's got it"...i knew that...whenever i hear this, i think of him...he had a very good ear. here's to you chic !! bt

父のためのこの小さな歌 他にできないことをします 私があなたにそれを歌うと リズムと韻があります それは時間内に彼の記憶を固定します 彼の美しさが輝いている 私の心と魂を通して 私の心はいつも抱きしめます 彼のための特別な場所 それは本当です 私たちは頭を下げて祈ります 毎日の父の日 復習しましょう 彼があなたに意味するすべて 母の愛は本当に素敵です しかし、古いお父さんは犠牲にされました 私たちにとっても 彼に期限をあげましょう 私たちは誇りに思っています 彼の伝記で 私たちは彼のためにこの歌を歌います あなたも

[@137MHC]

Does anyone know who the backing band are on this track. Surely one of the great versions of this song. Are they Dee Dee's own lyrics - different from the Leon Thomas version, recently covered by Gregory Porter?

[@MrNewktrane]

First- the band was Dee Dee's French group as she was still living in France at that time I believe. Second- the great lyrics heard on this version was written( as were all the lyrics from this great recording) by Mr. Horace Silver.
