Hey Daddy

You were headed out to work one day

Making your rounds so you'd get paid

What can I say Dad to make you stay with me

Sometimes Daddy you just don't understand

I want to be with you, that's my plan

Come on Daddy, just this once

Hey Daddy, you can't leave me now

Who's going to take me fishing

Who's going to show me how

Who's going to teach me how to ride a bike

How to throw a ball, and how to fly a kite

Hey Daddy, you can't leave me now

Well I was up late doing homework one night

When you and Momma got into a fight

And I heard you say, "I've had enough"

You packed your bags getting ready to go

You left me wondering and I didn't know

If you were going to come back for me someday

Hey Daddy, you can't leave me now

Who's going to watch me grow up

Who's going to hold my hand

Who's going to teach me how to play guitar

All about boys, and how to drive a car

Hey Daddy, you can't leave me now

You were coming home from the doctor today

And I could tell things didn't go your way

But I'm here to tell you Dad, just hang tough

You got a lot more living to do

So don't let it get the best of you

I'm going to be here Dad, when things get rough

Hey Daddy, you can't leave us now

Who's going to spoil your grandkids

Who's going to show me how

Who's going to help me when I need advice

How to raise a kid, and make a sacrifice

Hey Daddy, you can't leave us now

Well they say, that God's going to do what's fair

But we need you more, more than He needs you up there

Hey Daddy, you can't leave us now

Who's going to spoil your grandkids

Who's going to show me how

Who's going to help me when I need advice

How to raise a kid, and make a sacrifice

Hey Daddy, you can't leave us now

Hey Daddy, you can't leave us now

Hey Daddy, you can't leave me now
