Song information On this page you can find the lyrics of the song Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind, artist - Confederate Railroad. Album song Notorious, in the genre КантриDaddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind |
| We were poor when I was a youngun |
| I don’t remember ever going hungry |
| Daddy made sure we didn’t do without |
| I went to school with some of these fellas |
| They had money and I was jealous |
| I didn’t know then what I know now |
| Daddy’d say you can’t judge a book by looking at its cover |
| It’s what’s inside that really matters |
| CHORUS |
| Daddy never was the Cadillac kind |
| He said some things just glitter and shine |
| He taught us that love was the one thing money couldn’t buy |
| Daddy never was the Cadillac kind |
| I left home right out of high school |
| Bought me a big car thought I was real cool |
| Cruisin' around the old neighborhood |
| I’d see Dad after church on Sunday |
| I’d say you’ll have to go riding with me someday |
| He just said no, I never understood |
| He asked me how I bought it, I told him on credit |
| Daddy just smiled, I’ll never forget it REPEAT CHORUS |
| It took a while but now I’m grown |
| I’ve settled down with kids of my own |
| The more I give them |
| The more they want |
| Daddy left us last November |
| I don’t remember him ever looking better |
| All laid out in his Sunday best |
| I’m sure instead of all the attention |
| All he’d of wanted was a few words mentioned |
| A simple man simply laid to rest |
| As they drove him away in that big Cadillac |
| With a tear in my eye I had to laugh |
| REPEAT CHORUS |
