Little boy running through the yard fell and skinned his heart And later climbed up in a tree As he looked into the sky he began to cry And said daddy why'd you leave
Call me daddy I'm feeling blue Call me daddy I need to talk to you Call me daddy help me through And then he bowed his head to pray call me dad
The little boy became a man found a bride and took her hand And made a baby all their own As he looked in that baby's eyes as the baby cried He swore you'll never be alone
Call me daddy when you're feeling blue Call me daddy and I'll talk to you Call me daddy and I'll help you through And then he bowed his head to pray call me dad [ mandolin ] Another life has come and gone another baby's grown And stands alone against the world As he looks into the sky he begins to cry And says daddy I miss you
