Daddy Sang Bass - JD Sumner & The Stamps
Written by：Perkins Carl
I remember when I was a lad
Times were hard and things were bad
But there's a silver lining behind every cloud
Just poor people that's all we were
Trying to make a living out of black land dirt
We'd get together in a family circle singing loud
Daddy sing bass
Mama sing tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singing seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long
I'll rejoin them in a happy song
I'm gonna join the family circle at the Throne
Oh no the circle won't be broken
By and by lord by and by
Daddy you sing bass
Mama sing tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
In the sky lord in the sky
I remember after work
Mama would call in all of us
But you could hear us singing for a country mile
Now little brother has done gone on
But I'll rejoin him in a happy song
We'll be together again up yonder in a little while
Daddy you sing bass
Mama sing tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
Singing seems to help a troubled soul
One of these days and it won't be long
I'll rejoin them in a happy song
I'm gonna join the family circle at the Throne
Oh no the circle won't be broken
By and by lord by and by
Daddy you sing bass
Mama sing tenor
Me and little brother would join right in there
In the sky lord in the sky
In the sky lord in the sky
