Hello Dad

Hello, daddy, are you drunk again?
I've been waiting on the back porch
Waiting to come in

And good evening daddy
You're asleep again
Lying on the T.V. couch with your eyes hidden under your rim

But you know you can't, you can't fool me
Because I know, for I know that you still love me
And I know that it ain't all your fault
You're just a strong-headed man with brittle weak heart
And you're waiting, yes, you are waiting for your daddy
'Cause he's gonna come and he's gonna tear you apart

But why can't you hold me like the other, the other daddies do?
And, well, why can't you love me, yeah
Like I was a part of you

But you know that you can't, oh, you can't fool me
Because I know, for I know that you still love me
And I know that it ain't all your fault daddy
You're just a strong-headed man with brittle weak heart
And you're waiting, yes, you are waiting for your daddy
'Cause he's gonna come and he's gonna tear you apart

So goodbye, daddy
I guess I'll be seeing you around
Because I am old enough to understand
But still too young, I am just too young
I am still too young to know how

And hello daddy, are you drunk again?
I've been waiting on the back porch
Waiting on the back porch
I am still waiting on the back porch
To come in
