paroles de chanson To Daddy - Original Version - Dolly Parton

Mama never seemed to miss the finer things in life
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
She never wanted to be more than mother and a wife
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

The only thing that seemed to be important in her life
Was to make a house a home and make us happy
Mama never wanted any more than what she had
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

He often left her all alone but she didn't mind the stayin' home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
And she never missed the flowers and the cards he never sent her
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

Being took for granted was a thing she accepted
And she didn't need those things to make her happy
And she didn't seem to notice that he didn't kiss and hold her
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

One morning we awoke just to find a note
That mama carefully wrote and left to daddy
And as he began to read it our ears could not believe it
The words she had written there to daddy

She said, "The kids are old enough, they don't need me very much
I've gone in search for love I need so badly
I have needed you so long but I just can't keep holding on"
She never meant to come back home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

Goodbye to daddy
