| Lyrics: | Daddy oh daddy, won't you answer me please
Daddy oh daddy, won't you answer me please
All
day I stood by your coffin, tryin' to give my poor heart ease
I rubbed my hands over your
head and whispered in your ear
I rubbed my hands over your head and whispered in your
ear
And I want my man to know that your mama's near
Mmm... (hummed chorus)
You
told me that you loved me, and I believed what you said
You told me that you loved me, and I
believed what you said
And I wish that I could fall here across your coffin dead
When I
left the undertakers, I couldn't help but cry
When I left the undertakers, I couldn't help but
cry
And it hurt me so bad, to tell the man I love goodbye. |
