Daddy's Home Songtext
von Joe Diffie

Beans are ready in the pot
Cornbread′s cooking, the summer's hot
A trail of dust up the drive
Mama says those words that make me come alive
She said

"Daddy′s home"
In my eyes, he was the greatest man I've ever known
Looking back makes me realize just what I had now that he's gone
What I would give if I could hear Mama say one more time
"Daddy′s home"

Snuck in late, scared to death
Smell of whiskey on my breath
Little sister says she′s gonna tell
Then she spoke those words that I recall so well
She said


"Daddy's home"
And he showed me the difference in what′s right and what is wrong
Lessons learned still linger in my memory
Though the years have come and gone
What I would give if I could hear Mama say one more time
"Daddy's home"

Sometimes I wish that he were still here with me
And though he′s in a better place, it's so hard to let him go

"Daddy′s home"
In my eyes, he was the greatest man I've ever known
Looking back makes me realize just what I had now that he's gone
What I would give if I could hear Mama say one more time
"Daddy′s home"

"Daddy′s home"
"Daddy's home"
"Son, Daddy′s home"
"Daddy's home"
"Daddy′s home"
"Daddy's home"
"Son, Daddy′s home"
