Oh Daddy, Lord I miss you when you're gone
Daddy, please don't stay gone so long
'Cause I need you when I'm sleepin'
More when I'm awake
Wonderin' where you're keepin'
Watchin' everyday, for you Daddy
Don't stay gone so long

Oh Mama, how'd you get so far away
Mama, won't you come on home to stay
'Cause I need you when I'm sleepin'
More when I'm awake
Wonderin' where you're keepin'
Watchin' everyday, for you Mama
Don't stay gone so long
