Daddy Had a Cardiac and Mama's Got a Cadillac

I grew up in what I thought was domestic bliss I had a daddy and a mama and a brother and a sis Never knew nothing 'bout the Finer things We were livin' on weenies, beenies, and dreams Daddy used to take alot of business trips Promisin' us all a better life than this Said it was a sacrifice he had to make Right about then, mama dropped another plate Well it turned out daddy wasn't nothin' but a snake He had a half a dozen women, in a half a dozen states Mama grew wiser as the years went by She never said a word, kept it all inside Well they found him face down in a motel room Smellin' like liquor and a lover's perfume Standing by the gravesite, mama was a wreck Till the State-Farm man, handed her a fat check Daddy had a cardiac Mama got a Cadillac All of us kids done throwed away the tater sacks Look at us now Living that life Daddy always promised us that he'd provide Daddy's on a shady hill Mama's in a Coupe Deville Never have to worry 'bout another bill Daddy died smiling But mama got the last laugh Daddy had a cardiac Mama got a Cadillac Well it's been awhile now since it all went down Mama's still a hero all over town When the preacher does a serom about those who wait Mama slips a hundred in the offerin' plate Now, each and every year on the day he died Mama dresses up for a Midnight Drive Where she ever goes, she never does say But, there's a Fresh set of tire track on daddy's grave Daddy had a cardiac Mama got a Cadillac All of us kids done throwed away the tater sacks Look at us now Living that life Daddy always promised us that he'd provide Daddy's on a shady hill Mama's in a Coupe Deville Never have to worry 'bout another bill Daddy died smiling But mama got the last laugh Daddy had a cardiac Mama got a Cadillac Daddy's on a shady hill Mama's in a Coupe Deville Never have to worry 'bout another bill Daddy died smiling But mama got the last laugh Daddy had a cardiac Mama got a Cadillac Daddy died smiling But mama got the last laugh Daddy had a cardiac Mama got a Cadillac Daddy had a cardiac Mama got a Cadillac
