Thank you to everyone who shared their memories with us. We received hundreds of heartfelt photos and wish we could include every single one. This video is a tribute to all the fathers, grandfathers, and father figures who have shaped our lives with their love, strength, and quiet wisdom.

He was a good man, worked hard all his life
Handed down so many things, like wrong from right He taught me at his workbench what I couldn't learn in school Now I'm in the real world with my father's tools

I can still hear the one-liners he'd repeat
Always at the perfect time, he'd never miss a beat
Keep your blade sharp son, clear away the dust Always measure twice before you make the cut

Level plum and square - meant to stand for years and years
Straight as a rule - with my father's tools
He's here I swear - when I'm working out there
There's always something to do with my father's tools

He wore coveralls, plaid shirt and boots
I wear a neck tie, shiny shoes and suits
And our jobs couldn't be different with a different set of rules
But I use a handshake and my father's tools

Level plum and square - meant to stand for years and years
Straight as a rule - with my father's tools
He's here I swear - when I'm working out there
There's always something to do with my father's tools

I look forward to the weekends, just to feel them in my hands
They always help me clear my head, before Monday comes again

One day I'll hand them down the best way I know
We're all just passing through this world that's how it goes
But something that we leave behind can last a long time
If we build it right upon the ground up to the sky

Level plum and square - meant to stand for years and years
Straight as a rule - with my father's tools
He's here I swear - when I'm working out there
There's always something to do
Level plum and square - meant to stand for years and years
Straight as a rule - with my father's tools
Straight as a rule
