Daddy's Working Boots |
|
(Dolly Parton) |
|
My dear hard workin' daddy works his life away for us |
|
That's the way that daddy shows to us his love |
|
And Daddy's two hard working hands |
|
They're callous and they're sore |
|
And Daddy's workin' boots have walked a million miles or more |
|
As long as I remember, I remember Daddy workin' |
|
Workin' on the job or either on the farm |
|
Tryin' to provide for the family that he loves |
|
And Daddy's working boots have taken many steps for us |
|
Chorus: |
|
Daddy's workin' boots have served as his foundation |
|
Though just like him, they're tired and worn |
|
For years they've helped him stand |
|
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation |
|
They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man |
|
Dear lord above, I know up there my Daddy's got a mansion |
|
And a great reward that's long been overdue |
|
And when it comes my Daddy's time to be with you in heaven |
|
Spoken: |
|
Won't cha let him walk your golden streets |
|
In a pair of brand new golden boots |
|
Repeat Chorus |
|
Daddy's workin' boots |
