Текст песни Daddy (I Need You Tonight) - Hank Williams, Jr.

Daddy was a country singer
And he wrote the songs everybody played back in his day
Daddy's gone but the songs still linger
In the memory of the ones who can recall the way he played
But I don't want to make a living, not the one my daddy had
Hey, just because the old is good don't mean the new is bad

And I don't sing the way my daddy did
But you know I do alright
And I don't say it like my daddy did
But I need you tonight

All my life I've been on stages
You won't believe some of the places
That I've played in my day
I guess I've earned a lot of wages
But not enough to match the dues that I've paid in my day
And it's nice to find some people like you as I go from town to town
'Cause as long as y'all are with me you know I'll be around

No I don't sing the way my daddy did
Hey you know I do alright
And I don't say it like my daddy did
But I need you tonight

And I don't sing the way my daddy did
But you know I do alright
And I don't say it like my daddy did
But I need you tonight
