Lyrics

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 A mother and a wife If she did, she never did say so to daddy The only thing that seemed To be inportant in her life Was to make a house a home and to make us happy Mama never wanted anymore 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 cards he never sent her If she did, she never did say so to daddy Being took for granted was a that thing she accepted And she didn't need those things to make her happy And she didn't seem to notice That he didn't kiss and hold her If she did, she never did say so to daddy One morning we awoke just to find a note Mama carefully wrote and left to daddy And as he began to read it out ears could not beleive it The words she had written there to daddy She said, "the kids are old enough, They don't need me very much I've gone in search for love I need so badly I have needed you so long But I just can't keep holding on" She never meant to come back home If she did, she never did say so to daddy Good-bye to daddy
