Don't Cry Daddy - Elvis Presley
Lyrics by:Mac Davis
Composed by:Mac Davis
Today I stumbled from my bed
With thunder crashing in my head
My pillow still wet
From last night's tears
And as I think of giving up
A voice inside my coffee cup
Kept crying out
Ringing in my ears
Don't cry daddy
Daddy please don't cry
Daddy you've still got me and little Tommy
Together we'll find a brand-new mommy
Daddy daddy please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again
Oh daddy please don't cry
Why are children always first
To feel the pain and hurt the worst
It's true but somehow
It just don't seem right
'Cause every time I cry I know
It hurts my little children so
I wonder
Will it be the same tonight
Don't cry daddy
Daddy please don't cry
Daddy you've still got me and little Tommy
Together we'll find a brand-new mommy
Daddy daddy please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again
Oh daddy please don't cry
Oh daddy please don't cry
