The day I learned my daddy, passed on
A part of me just died along
And I cried, yes I cried, like a baby ~,
I just cried
I hurt so bad, from inside
I could feel my soul subside
And fade away, like a falling star, at night
And all I could do, was cry and cry
Cause, I just couldn't, no I just couldn't bring myself to say goodbye
No, I couldn't bring myself to say goodbye
You see, my daddy was the sort of man
Whose love was as pure as the golden band, he wore
He was loving and understanding, hardworking and accepting
Raised us kids the best he could, my daddy was a good man
Yes my daddy was a good man,
He was my world and my best friend, my daddy was a good man,
And I just cried, yes I cried, like a baby ~and
I just cried, and then my mama came to me
And said, death my darling is heavenly
And daddy wouldn't want you to cry
Well I just couldn't, no I just couldn't bring myself, to say goodbye
No, I couldn't bring myself to say goodbye
So I cried, yes I cried, like baby ~
I just cried, and all I could feel was nothing mattered
Now that my heart has been shattered to pieces
And my mama she could see, she could see right through me
And all she could do, was try to comfort me
Cause, I just couldn't, no I just couldn't bring myself, to say goodbye
I just couldn't bring myself to say goodbye
And I'm gone' a miss him, until I'm with him, once again
My daddy was a good man ...Yes my daddy was a good man.......
Spoken swords: I love you and I miss you daddy........ End........
