[Dolly Parton - To Daddy lyrics]

Momma never seemed to miss the
Finer things in life
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
She never wanted to be more
Than mother and a wife
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

The only things that seemed to
Be important in her life
Was to make our house a
Home and make us happy
Momma never wanted anymore than what she had
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

He often left her all alone
She didn't mind the staying home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
And she never missed the flowers and
The gifts he never gave her
If she did, she never did say so to daddy



Being took for granted was a
Thing that she accepted
And she didn't need those things
To make her happy
She didn't even seem to notice that
He didn't kiss and hold her
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

One morning we awoke just to find the note
That momma carefully wrote and left to daddy
And as he began to read it
Our ears could not believe it
The words that she had written there to daddy

She said the kids are old enough
They don't need me very much
And I've gone in search for
Love I need so badly
I have needed you so long but
I just can't keep holding on
She never meant to come back home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy

Good-bye to daddy
