Daddy Won't You Please Come Home

You said you were leaving then you left us On the road somewhere out there You'd find your freedom What life's all about You're gone and you left us out Did you find the good life you were after Did you realize it was here all along Night after night When I turned out my light I'd pray that you'd come home Daddy won't you please come home I'm not the same since you've been gone You should see me dressed up In my ribbons and bows Daddy won't you please come home You might be working in Alaska Or somewhere on the eastern coast Or anyplace in between Where the pastures are green Where you live nobody knows Daddy won't you please come home I'm not the same since you've been gone You should see me dressed up In my ribbons and bows Daddy won't you please come home When I was young the years went by slowly With age they just roll on by I forgive you For leaving Now I'm older and alone Do you miss me like I miss you Come in from the cold Oh, Daddy Oh, Daddy Won't you please come home Daddy won't you please come home I'm not the same since you've been gone You should see me dressed up In my ribbons and bows Daddy won't you please Daddy won't you please Daddy won't you please come home Oh, Daddy you should see me In my ribbons and bows
