Lyrics for Song: To Daddy
Lyrics for Album: The Great [2004]
(Dolly Parton)
Mama never seemed to miss the finer things in life
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
She never wanted to be more than mother and a wife
If she did, she never did say so to daddy.
The only thing that seemed to be important in her life
Was to make our house a home and make us happy
Mama never wanted any more than what she had
If she did, she never did say so to daddy.
He often left her alone, she didn't mind the stayin' home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
And she never missed the flowers and the gifts he never gave her
If she did, she never did say so to daddy.
Being took for granted was a that thing that she accepted
And she don't need those things to make her happy
And she didn't seem to notice that he don't kiss and hold her
If she did, she never did say so to daddy.
One morning we awoke just to find a note
That mama carefully wrote and left to daddy
And as we began to read it out ears could not beleive it
The words that she had written there to daddy.
She said, "Our kids are older now, they don't need me very much
And I've gone in search for love I need so badly
I have needed you so long but I just can't keep holdin' on."
She never meant to come back home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy.
Goodbye to daddy...
