Verse 1 In a vine covered shack in the mountains Bravely fighting the battle of time There's a dear one who's wept through life's sorrows It's that silver haired daddy of mine. Chorus If I could recall all the heartaches, dear ole daddy I've caused you to bear. If I could erase those lines from your face and bring back the gold to your hair If God would but grant me the power just to turn back the pages of time I would give all I own If I put a tone to that silver haired daddy of mine Repeat to chorus If I could recall all the heartaches, dear ole daddy I've caused you to bear. If I could erase those lines from your face and bring back the gold to your hair If God would but grant me the power just to turn back the pages of time I would give all I own If I put a tone to that silver haired daddy of mine
