That Silver Haired Daddy Of Mine

That Silver Haired Daddy Of Mine - Various Artists

Written by：Gene Autry/Jimmy Long

In a vine covered shack

In the mountains

Bravely fighting the battle of time

There is one

Who has weathered my sorrows

It's that silver haired daddy of mine

If I could recall

All those heartaches

Dear old daddy I've caused

You to bear

If I could erase

The lines on 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'd give

All I own

If I could but atone

To that silver haired daddy of mine

That silver haired daddy of mine

If I

Could recall

All those heartaches

Dear old daddy

I've caused

You to bear

If I

Could erase

The 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'd give all I own

If I could but atone

To that silver haired daddy

Of mine
