Daddy Said

歌詞

Well my sister got married at very early age Momma got her ready for her wedding day Everybody came to see the beautiful bride She was so young that everybody cried Daddy said I wish it wouldn?t happen to a child of mine Now they moved to a town not too far away My sister stayed home, her husband worked all day Sister got tired of having nothing to do So she thought that she?d like to have a baby or two Daddy said babies having babies is an awful crime But she had her one and another came along And she was so happy like nothing was wrong Everybody waited for the axe to fall They said she never had a chance to live her life at all Daddy said trouble, it?s just a matter of time Now babies grew to children as babies will do They added four more to the original two Til the house was so full it was busting at the seams They had a half a dozen little mouths to feed Daddy said that poor girl must be going out of her mind They had to work hard just to make ends meet But they always had shoes and plenty to eat So much love in that little bitty house Nobody thought that they were doing without Daddy said I say a little prayer for them every night Well the years went by so happily Sister was a momma like she wanted to be Making home for her husband and her family With the babies bouncing on their Paw Paw?s knee Daddy said I knew everything would work out fine Daddy said I knew everything would work out fine
