Verse 2- same guitar pattern as verse 1
When I was young my father told me, to each his own.
The lady said as she kissed the cow, some like the fiddle, 
some like the trombone and I live by that rule.
Your trip is your trip and my trip is my trip too.
Yeah, I mind my own business. I'll have an O'Doul's and my friend will have a Guinness

I love my Dad (Mark) I love my Dad (background singers) x3
