Daddy Lonesome by David McWilliams Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey, Daddy Lonesome
Slip me a rhyme
Make it easy to remember

[Verse 1]
'Cause I've been sittin' here these last few days
Tryin' to get myself together
And everything I try do
Keeps changin' like the weather
And yet when she laid by my side
It all came fast and easy
And when she'd listened to my songs
She'd sing them just to please

[Chorus]
Hey, Daddy Lonesome
Slip me a rhyme
Make it easy to remember
Hey, Daddy Lonesome
Make it in time
I won't let you down
[Verse 2]
Music and the poems ran
They tumble like a fountain
And I could make all things to pass
Master any mountain
Now, every time I lift my pen
The words don't have much meanin'
My guitar strings are outta tune
I wonder am I dreamin'

[Chorus]
Hey, Daddy Lonesome
Slip me a rhyme
Make it easy to remember
Hey, Daddy Lonesome
Make it this time
I won't let you down

[Instrumental Break & Outro]
