Daddy Lyrics - Dolly Parton

Daddy I feel that I must talk to you 

Are you sure this is what you want to do? 

Now it's not for us kids that I beg you to stay 

Please don't just walk out on Mama this way 

She's mothered your children, she's spent her whole life 

Trying to be a good mother and wife 

And she stood by you when the rest let you down 

Daddy, how can you walk out on her now? 

I'm your oldest daughter, my age twenty-three 

Your new love is even younger than me 

She's young, she's pretty, her hands soft as dew 

While Mama's are withered from working for you

Mom's not young any more like your new love 

But your new love won't love you like my mama does 

You've taken her best years, so don't leave her now 

Please, Daddy say that you won't let her down
