Artist/Band: Dolly Parton
Lyrics for Song: Daddy Won't Come Home Anymore
Lyrics for Album: The World of Dolly Parton, Vol. 2 [Columbia] [1988]



(Dolly Parton)



As I look around the little house we were so happy in

I think of all the happy times we'll never see again

Then I break down and start to cry the children ask what for

I can't find a way to tell them that daddy won't be home anymore.



Each night before they go to sleep they fold their little hands

And say a prayer for daddy fighting in that far off land

So tonight I'll help them say their prayers like I've always done before

God give me courage to tell them that daddy won't be home anymore.



But honey as for me there'll never be another man

And I'll bring our children up the best way that I can

You died for what you thought was right that much I know for sure

But the children just can't understand why daddy won't be home anymore.



No the children just don't understand why daddy won't be home anymore...
