Letter To My Daughters Lyrics - No Stranger To Shame - Uncle Kracker

I'm sending this letter, I'll mail it today 

There's so many things I've been wanting to say 

Your mom sent some pictures and my how you've grown 

Rock n' roll fathers are never at home 

I'm writing this letter, I made you a song 

I promised your mom that I'd write while I'm gone 

You say daddy come home, we'll just have to wait 

I hope when I get there that it won't be too late 

Skylar I just missed your first step today 

I have no excuses and nothing to say 

I live on a bus with a rock 'n' roll band 

I hope when you're older that you'll understand 

I'm coming home soon, this tour's almost through 

I promise I'll try to spend more time with you 

You say daddy come home, we'll just have to wait 

I hope when I get there that it won't be too late 

Now Madison Blue you know I love you too 

Not a single day passes that I don't think of you 

I'm running on empty and a mountain so high 

I can pull out your pictures and look in your eyes 

I long for the day when your old man comes home 

It kills me to hear you say, "Daddy, don't go" 

You say, "Daddy, come home," we'll just have to wait 

I hope when I get there that it won't be too late 

Daddy's at work now he's trying to pay bills 

Egos and assholes are part of my deal 

I make some money and I have some fun 

The tax man he cometh and I'm back to square one 

Don't worry about your daddy, you girls be good 

Give a kiss to your mother, I sure wish I could 

This life has its moments, I'm not always sad 

Take care and I love you, your rock 'n' roll dad
