Daddy's Old Fiddle |
Daddy’s old fiddle is a family treasure |
Handed down from hand to hand |
I used to go with him when I was just little |
I was my daddy’s biggest fan |
Hey diddle diddle my Daddy’s old fiddle |
Boy he could play to beat the band |
He played better than just a little |
Known and loved throughout the land |
Oh back when I was just a young’n |
I used to travel around with dad |
He made a little money and we had a lot of fun’n |
And it was the best times that I ever had |
Daddy played at every social function |
He even coulda played the Bill Monroe |
He offered him a job but Daddy wouldn’t take it |
Said he miss me too much to go |
My daddy loved me |
Play one Daddy! |
That’s good |
Now every square dance and every pie supper |
Even on the big election day |
People would come from miles around |
They didn’t come to vote but to hear him play |
I’m votin' for you Daddy |
Cotton Eyed Joe and Sally Goodin |
Soldiers Joy and Hasty Puddin' |
Little Boy Blue and the horn he had |
Didn’t have nothin' on my dad |
Said chicken in the bread pan pickin' out dough |
Daddy does your dog bite, no child no |
Hey diddle, diddle my daddy’s old fiddle |
It rosin-ates throughout my soul |
Show em' Daddy |
Ain’t my Daddy good |
Daddy’s old fiddle is a family treasure |
Handed down from hand to hand |
I used to go with him when I was just little |
Cause I was my daddy’s biggest fan |
Hey diddle diddle my daddy’s old fiddle |
Boy he could play to beat the band |
And he played better than just a little |
Known and loved throughout the land |
And when they laid my daddy down |
And I stood beside his grave |
Held his fiddle in my hand |
And I played «Amazing Grace How Sweet The Sound» |
Daddy’s old fiddle is a family treasure |
Handed down from hand to hand |
I used to go with him when I was just little |
Cause I was my daddy’s biggest fan |
All day singing, dinner on the gound |
Weddings, funerals, and parties in town |
In the Courthouse yard they spit and they’d whittle |
While Daddy entertained him with his old fiddle |
Daddy’s old fiddle is a family treasure |
Handed down from hand to hand |
I used to go with him when I was just little |
Cause I was my daddy’s biggest fan |
Daddy’s old fiddle |
My Daddy’s old fiddle |
I miss you Daddy |
