Текст (слова) песни: confederate railroad - Daddy Never Was The Cadillac Kind
We were poor when I was a youngun I don`t remember ever going hungry Daddy made sure we didn`t do without I went to school with some of these fellas They had money and I was jealous I didn`t know then what I know now Daddy`d say you can`t judge a book by looking at its cover It`s what`s inside that really matters
CHORUS Daddy never was the Cadillac kind He said some things just glitter and shine He taught us that love was the one thing money couldn`t buy Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
I left home right out of high school Bought me a big car thought I was real cool Cruisin` around the old neighborhood I`d see Dad after church on Sunday I`d say you`ll have to go riding with me someday He just said no, I never understood He asked me how I bought it, I told him on credit Daddy just smiled, I`ll never forget it
REPEAT CHORUS
It took a while but now I`m grown I`ve settled down with kids of my own The more I give them The more they want
Daddy left us last November I don`t remember him ever looking better All laid out in his Sunday best I`m sure instead of all the attention All he`d of wanted was a few words mentioned A simple man simply laid to rest As they drove him away in that big Cadillac With a tear in my eye I had to laugh
REPEAT CHORUS
