Good Time Daddy Blues Songtext
von Carson McHone

My good timin′ daddy, he don't treat me right
He just comes ′round when he wants and he leaves when he likes
I said, my good timin' daddy, he don't treat me right
He just comes ′round when he wants and he leaves just when he likes

If I had me any sense I might simply cut him loose
But he done wrapped around my heart something like a noose
I said, If I had me any sense now, I might simply cut him loose
Oh, but he done wrapped around my heart something like a noose

But if the change in my pocket could buy me some more of your time
Darlin′, you know I'd spend every last nickel and dime
But I′m broke as it were and this amount just won't suffice

So I got myself this heart that just can′t keep from being blue
And when you leave me lonesome, babe, it's pining for you
I said, I got me this heart now that just can′t keep from being blue
When you leave me lonesome, babe, you know it's just pining for you


So I call you on the line but your twang's gone outta tune
You′ve been gone so very long you got me howlin′ at the moon
Said when I call you on the line but your twang's gone outta tune
You′ve been gone so very long you got me howlin' at the moon

But if the change in my pocket could buy me some more of your time
Darlin′, you know I'd spend every last nickel and dime
But I′m broke as it were and this amount just won't suffice

You can ride you a pony, you can drive you a truck
But if you don't feed ′em right, you′ll be shit outta luck
Said, you can ride you a pony or drive you a truck
Oh, but babe, you gotta feed 'em else you′re gon' be clean outta luck

So I′mma give that man a little piece of my mind
Tell him he best be stickin' ′round or else he's wasting my time
Well I'm gon′ give that man a little piece of my mind
Tell him he best be stickin′ 'round or else he′s just been wasting time

I said, my good timin' daddy, he don′t treat me right
He just comes 'round when he wants and he leaves when he likes
I said, my good timin′ daddy, he don't treat me right
He just comes 'round when he wants and he leaves just when he likes
Yeah he comes ′round when he wants and he leaves when he likes
