Daddy's Home (The Big Branch Mine Song)
Clock on the dash board reads 5:09,
he hears his cell phone ringing, its his baby crying,
saying daddy please come home, me and mama are all alone,
and I miss you.
Don't worry baby, is what he had to say,
look out the window, I'm in the driveway,
Come and meet me at the door,You and mama don't have to worry anymore,
cause I'm home.
Daddy's Home,
You don't have to cry,
Daddy's Home,
So dry your eyes,
Hes a little tired from that mine,
But you can rest easy now,
Cause daddy's home.
Now its been on every channel, on my tv,
in">You can see it in the family's faces, they only want relief,
That little glimpse of hope, that those rescue workers will bring them back home,
That same mamas standing, with tears in her eyes, When the Mine Foreman tells her
shes said her last goodbyes, to a man who gave his life, just to provide, for his family,
Oh their son will never see him say.
Daddy's Home,
You don't have to cry,
Daddy's Home,
So dry your eyes,
Hes a little tired from that mine,
But you can rest easy now,
Cause daddy's home.
Though hes gone we can still feel him near,
and we know that he wont shed another tear
cause
Daddy's Home,
we don't have to cry,
Daddy's Home,
So dry your eyes,
Hes a little tired from that mine,
But he can rest easy now,
cause Daddy's Home,
we don't have to cry,
Daddy's Home,
So dry your eyes,
29 died in that Big Branch Mine
But they can rest easy now,
Cause their all home.
