There is plenty that could render "Build Me A Daddy" much more cheesy than meaningful---the heartstring pulling story of a son losing his father, and oh, let's make the father a soldier, so we weasel that flag-waving element in there too. But making a highly sentimental subject work is the mark of good songwriters.
