A Daddy Gone

Daddy died leaving me here
In this world all alone
I know he dead, what does it mean
I saw him there lying in a box

I call his name he did not answer
Sleeping I thought but his eyes never open
Hoping he awake and hold me again
Daddy wake up from the box

Wake up daddy from the box
Lets go home to your house
Daddy slept without a word
Daddy laid still in the box

Daddy's face I see in my mind
Come get me just like before
Take me riding take me shopping
Spending time just me and you

I remember my daddy he was here
Daddy is gone where did he go
I see his house but he's not there
He did not come home from the box

I miss you daddy I do not know why
You left me here without your love
I miss you daddy where did you go
You would not get up from the box

The men in uniform shot the guns
Did they hurt you?
Did they shoot you?
Mama said no, that was not so

What happen daddy? Why did you die?
Who hurt you daddy made you cry
I hear you was sad that made you sick
Sad took you away, away from me
