Lyrics

[Verse]
My daddy Adrian drives a white van
Works with rough hands he's a plasterer man
Patching up cracks in a world that's gray
Through dusty streets he finds his way

[Verse 2]
He stops at schools when the clock strikes two
In his worn-out boots and his hat askew
Gives out sweets to the kids in line
Says keep on smiling it'll all be fine

[Chorus]
The white van man he's got a plan
With a trowel in his hand and a heart that can
Build a fortress out of stone and sand
The white van man he's got a plan

[Verse 3]
His love runs deep for his daddy Johnny
In their stories he's rich though he's got no money
Shared wisdom flows as the kettle sings
Through life's rough patches they mend the seams

[Bridge]
The van it hums like a lullaby
Carries dreams as the miles roll by
Plaster dust settles but the man moves on
Each crack he seals hums its own song

[Verse 4]
On Sunday mornings he gazes at skies
Little kids' laughter still fills his mind
He wears his flaws like a badge of pride
Through all the trials he's still alive
