      E                        A         G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, I'm on paternity leave

      E                              A        G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, it's just my baby and me

      E                          A         G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, while my wife's at work

           E                     A             G      A
I've got a bottle in my hand and spit up on my shirt

E                E         E2
Baby wakes me up around 5 am

E                     E                    E2
Kicking and screaming until his face turns red

   E                     E              E2
He usually tends to calm down once he's fed

     E                       E                E2
So I give him his bottle, my wife gets out of bed

E                      E                   E2
Cook my wife breakfast while she's getting ready

E           E                         E2
O-oh, o-oh, someone's diaper is smelly

E           E                           E2
O-oh, o-oh, it leaked all over his belly

E           E                              E2
O-oh, o-oh, it looks like mustard and jelly

E                    E                    E2
Kiss my wife goodbye while I clean up his bum bum

     E                  E                E2
It's time for his bath, this is gonna be fun fun

  E              E           E2
I try not to get soap in his eyes

   E                      E             E2
He really doesn't like it, it makes him cry

E                                E           E2
But if he cries to make him stop, I've got a trick

E                   E                  E2
I make funny noises with my mouth like this

E            E                   E2
Brr brr brr, ga ga goo goo ga ga ga

E                       E             E2
Then we play pick-a-boo, it makes him laugh

      E                        A         G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, it's a full time job

      E                       A         G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, but I like it a lot

      E                        A             G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, during his afternoon nap

  E                              A             G     
I watch The Price Is Right and I make myself a snack

A
  Cheese and crackers

E                 E                  E2
If I have errands to run, I take the van

E                        E                   E2
Strap him in his car seat and bring his baby bag

E                     E                     E2
I always make sure his seat's well strapped in

   E               E       E2
My baby’s security is important

E                   E                 E2
Groceries, pay some bills, visit grandma

      E                  E              E2 
But I gotta make sure to be back by 4 o'clock

E                       E              E2
So I can prepare supper while I watch Oprah

E                           E             E2          
What should I make tonight, maybe some pasta

E                  E                  E2
And a Caesar salad, my wife will like that

E                    E             E2
5 o'clock’s the time that she gets back

E                           E         E2
She asks me how my day was, I say not bad

E                        E                 E2
It's all in a day's work as a stay-at-home dad

      E                   A          G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, I don't take drugs

      E                       A            G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, I get high on baby hugs

      E                        A          G
I'm a stay-at-home dad, I like Winnie the Pooh

       E                             A         G
But my favourite Disney movie is the Lion King 2

A
  I also like Ice Age

E
  That's right I take care of my children

E
  That's right I take care of my children

E
  That's right I take care of my children

E
  That's right I take care of my children

E
  That's right I take care of my children

E
  That's right I take care of my children

E
  That's right I take care of my children

E
  That's right I take care of my children
