Lyrics for Papa Loved Mama by Garth Brooks:
| | | Artist: | Garth Brooks |
| | Album: | Ropin' The Wind | | Track: | Papa Loved Mama | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 287 | | | | Lyrics: | Papa drove a truck nearly all his life
He drove mama crazy bein a trucker's wife
The part
she couldn't handle was a bein' alone
I guess she needed more to hold her than just the
telephone
Papa called mama each and every night
Just to ask her how she was and if his
kids were all right
Mama would wait for the call to come in
But when Daddy'd hang up she
was gone again
Chorus
Momma was a looker, Lord as a shine
Papa was a goodun of the
jealous kind
Papa Loved Mama and Mama loved men
Mama's in the graveyard, Papa's in the
pen.
Well, it was bound to happen
One night it did
Papa came home and it was
just us kids
He had a dozen roses and a bottle of wine
If he was lookin to surprise he was
doin' fine
Well I heard him call for momma up and down the hall
And I heard the bottle
break against the bedroom wall
That ol' Diesel engine made an eiry sound
When papa fired
it up and headed into town.
Well the picture in the paper showed the scene real
well
Papa's ring was buried in the local motel
The desk clerk said he saw it all real
clear
He never hit the brakes, and he was shifting gears.
