Daddy's Song
Oh ooooooo yeah! Hmmm Yeah...
Yesterday I got a page
And it said that my daddy died
But I couldn't cry
(sorry dog)
We had a fight long time ago
By the liquor store
Said I didn't wanna see your face no more
See I know pops was just a man
But how you hurt someone you love
I don't understand
Telephone rings
What am I supposed to do (--Oh--)
Heaven can you hear me
Father can you help me
On my knees I'm praying
Please come through
But word is slowly dying
And though I'm really trying
It's been a while since I last talk to you
Mama said God never makes mistakes
If that's true then I really need to see your face
So I'll know
It's gonna be ok
I pulled up around five
to the see my people and my mamas House
To see what they was talking bout
I haven't seen em in a long time
(--Baby how you doing fine--)
Now it's time to tell em
What's been on my mind
Who was there to wipe the tears away
And who decided not to show up
On my wedding day
So ya'll tell me
What am I supposed to do
I just need to hear from you
Heaven can you hear me
Father can you help me
On my knees I'm praying
Please come through
The word is slowly dying
And though I'm really trying
It's been a while since I last
Talked to you
Mama said God never makes mistakes
If that's true
Then I really need to see your face
So I'll know it's gonna be ok
Living in this world ain't easy
You wanna give up sometimes and
even though I got my girl beside me
A fathers love is hard to find see
every boy wants his daddy there
Feels like his daddy care
Feel Like his daddy will be there
Watchin On His graduation day
And be there to take his pain away
Heaven can you hear me
Father can you help me
On my knees I'm praying
Please come through
The word is slowly dying
And though I'm really trying
It's been a while since I last
Talked to you
Mama said God never makes mistakes
If that's true
Then I really need to see your face
So I'll know it's gonna be ok
To every daddy that might get this song see
One day you'll look up and your baby be grown yeah
You can't get back all the years that past so
While you have the chance,
You better make it last
Didn't have the chance to say goodbye and
I wish that I could see you one more time and
Now i gotta keep my mamma strong
Cos you'll never miss something till its gone
Heaven can you hear me
Father can you help me
On my knees I'm praying
Please come through
The word is slowly dying
And though I'm really trying
It's been a while since I last
Talked to you
Mama said God never makes mistakes
If that's true

So I'll know it's gonna be ok
Gonna be OK ok ok ok...
