Daddy and Home

I am dreaming, tonight, of an old southern town And the best friend that I ever had For I've grown so weary of roaming around And I'm going home to my dad Your hair has turned to silver and I know you're failing too Daddy, dear, oh, daddy, I'm coming back to you You made my childhood happy but still I longed to roam I've had my way, but now I'll say, I long for you and for home Dear daddy, you shared all my sorrows and joys You tried hard to bring me up right I know you'll still be one of the boys I'm starting back home tonight Your hair has turned to silver and I know you're failing too Daddy, dear, oh, daddy, I'm coming back to you You made my childhood happy but still I longed to roam I've had my way, but now I'll say, I long for you and for home I've had my way, but now I'll say I long for you and for home
