Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind 歌詞

Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind - Rail Confederate

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 it's cover

It's what's inside that really matters

 

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

Got me a big car thought

I was real cool

Cruisin' around the old neighborhood

 

I'd see daddy 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

 

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

 

It took a while but now

I'm grown

 

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 that 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

 

'Cause daddy never was

 

The Cadillac kind

 

He said some things just

Glitter and shine

 

Well just this once

 

I hope daddy enjoyed the ride

'Cause daddy never was

 

The Cadillac kind

 

No my daddy never was

 

 

The Cadillac kind
