Текст песни: My Daddy Never Was + перевод

My boss will tell you that I’ve been to work all week on time

That I ain’t had no liquor on my breathe

Ain’t no kinda' secret, I’ve been known to take a drink

And it’s made me do some things that I regret

Loretta said this ain’t no kind of way to raise a family

And one night she called it quits and called a cab

She left her clothes out on the clothes line

And the dishes in the sink

So I guess she knows that she ain’t coming back

Well I just want to see my kids

I just want to hold my girls

Heaven knows I ain’t got much of nothing else in this ole world

I just want to be around enough to know that they’ve been loved

I just want to be their daddy, my daddy never was

Now lately she’s been knowin' this old boy she met in church

And I can’t say she’s wrong for wanting more

I gave him the right to tell my wife that I can’t come around

The night I knocked a hole in her front door

And Loretta tooks my keys and she made me wait outside

But she didn’t call the law she called a cab

And as I pulled away I saw something in her eyes

So I reckon that she knows I ain’t so bad

I just want to see my kids

I just want to hold my girls

Heaven knows I ain’t got much of nothing else in this ole world

I just want to be around enough to know that they’ve been loved

I just want to be their daddy, my daddy never was

Well my boss will tell you that I’ve been to work all week on time

And I ain’t had no liquor on my breathe
