Beans are ready in the pot
Cornbread’s cookin’ a summer hot
A trail of dust, up the drive
Mama says those words that make me come alive
She said – daddy’s home
In my eyes he was the greatest man I’ve ever know
Lookin’ back
Makes me realize just what I had now that he’s gone
What I would give, if I could hear mama say
One more time
Daddy’s home
Snuck in late, scared to death
Smell of whiskey on my breath
Little sister says she’s gonna tell
Then the spoke those words that I recall so well
She said – daddy’s home
He showed me the difference in what’s right and what is wrong
Lessons learned
Still linger in my memory though the years have come and gone
What I would give if could hear mama say
One more time
Daddy’s home
Sometimes I wish that he were still here with me
And though he’s in better place, it’s so hard to let him go
Daddy’s home
In my eyes he was the greatest man I’ve ever known
Lookin’ back
Makes me realize just what I had now that he’s gone
What I would give if I could hear mama say
One more time
Daddy’s home…
