Daddy Blues by The bonfire band Lyrics
Daddy wants me to come home right away
Oh, my daddy wants me to come home right away
Oh, my daddy wants me to come home right away
But if I go home I know just what he'll say
'Quit your rambling and build yourself a home
Why don't you quit your rambling and build yourself a home?
Oh, quit your rambling and build yourself a home'
Oh daddy don't you remember how you used to roam?
'Well I was different, I had things on my mind
Yes, I was different, I had things on my mind
Oh, I was different, I had things on my mind
And you know how hard your mama was to find'
Well maybe I'm trying just as hard as you
Yes, maybe I'm trying just as hard as you
Oh, maybe I'm trying just as hard as you
Oh, maybe I know what I'm doing too
[Instrumental]
If I go home I know I just can't win
Yes, if I go home I know I just can't win
Oh, if I go home I know I just can't win
'Oh, everyone come look at what the cat dragged in'
'Well you sit around here doing nothing all day long
Yes, you sit around here doing nothing all day long
Oh, you sit around here doing nothing all day long'
But if I help out, you know I'll do it wrong
'Well son you know you can do anything you like
With a head like yours you can do anything you like
With a head like yours you can do anything you like'
But whatever I choose, you know it just ain't right
'Well son I've been here many more years than you
Don't you know I've been here many more years than you?
Yes, you know I've been here many more years than you'
Oh, when's this gonna be my world too?
Oh, my daddy wants me to come home right away
Oh, my daddy wants me to come home right away
But if I go home I know just what he'll say
'Quit your rambling and build yourself a home
Why don't you quit your rambling and build yourself a home?
Oh, quit your rambling and build yourself a home'
Oh daddy don't you remember how you used to roam?
'Well I was different, I had things on my mind
Yes, I was different, I had things on my mind
Oh, I was different, I had things on my mind
And you know how hard your mama was to find'
Well maybe I'm trying just as hard as you
Yes, maybe I'm trying just as hard as you
Oh, maybe I'm trying just as hard as you
Oh, maybe I know what I'm doing too
[Instrumental]
If I go home I know I just can't win
Yes, if I go home I know I just can't win
Oh, if I go home I know I just can't win
'Oh, everyone come look at what the cat dragged in'
'Well you sit around here doing nothing all day long
Yes, you sit around here doing nothing all day long
Oh, you sit around here doing nothing all day long'
But if I help out, you know I'll do it wrong
'Well son you know you can do anything you like
With a head like yours you can do anything you like
With a head like yours you can do anything you like'
But whatever I choose, you know it just ain't right
'Well son I've been here many more years than you
Don't you know I've been here many more years than you?
Yes, you know I've been here many more years than you'
Oh, when's this gonna be my world too?
