Mama never seemed to miss the finer things in life
if she did, she never did say so to Daddy.
She never wanted to be more than mother and a wife
if she did, she never did say so to Daddy.
The only thing that seemed to be important in her life
was to make our house a home and make us happy.
Mama never wanted any more than what she had
If she did she never did say so to daddy
He often left her all alone, cheated ma in staying home
if she did she never did say so to Daddy.
And she never missed the flowers and the cards
he never sent her... if she did she never did say so to
Daddy.
Being took for granted was a thing that she accepted
and she didn't need those things to make her happy.
And she didn't seem to notice that he didn't kiss and hold her
If she did she never did say so to Daddy.
One morning we awoke, just to find a note
Mama carefully wrote and left for Daddy.
And as he began to read it, our ears could not believe it
words she had written there to Daddy.
She said the kids were older now, they don't need me anymore
I've gone to search for love I need so badly.
I needed you so long, but I just can't keep holdin' on.
She never meant to come back home, if she did
she never did say so to Daddy.
Goodbye to Daddy.
