paroles de chanson Daddy Did The Best He Could - Sean Wilson

I remember how my Daddy worked all day for just a dollar
He never saved a penny but at least the bills were paid
But I've never seen a man work quite as hard
And come home half as tired and gave away a tenth of all he made
Daddy said "I'm making payments on a mansion"
So many times he told me this old world was not his home
And he told me he'd been promised he'd receive a fair reward
Daddy did the best he could then left the rest up to the Lord
Instrumental
I'd never seen a man who had more reason for complaining
He'd smile at me and claim that he never walked alone
When he called me to his bedside
I remember how my Daddy just looked up and smiled
And said "I'm going home"
Daddy said "I'm making payments on a mansion"
So many times he told me this old world was not his home
And he told me he'd been promised he'd receive a fair reward
Daddy did the best he could then left the rest up to the Lord
Instrumental
Since my Daddy left this world for one much better
I've been watching people
Worrying more, working hard for things they can't afford
In a world filled with problems noone's ever found the answers
Till things my Daddy left up to the Lord
Daddy said "I'm making payments on a mansion"
So many times he told me this old world was not his home
And he told me he'd been promised he'd receive a fair reward
Daddy did the best he could then left the rest up to the Lord
Daddy did the best he could then left the rest up to the Lord
