Paul Overstreet Daddy's Come Around
DADDY'S COME AROUND TO MAMA'S WAY OF THINKING
NO MORE STAYING OUT ALL NIGHT DRINKING
EVERYTHING'S BETTER ON THE HOME FRONT NOW
THEY'RE MEETING IN THE MIDDLE WORKING IT OUT
HE'S FINALLY FIGURED OUT HE'S GOT SOMETHING WORTH KEEPING
YEA NOW DADDY'S COME AROUND TO MAMA'S WAY OF THINKIN
DADDY USED TO GO OUT EVERY NIGHT WITH HIS FRIENDS
AND MAMA STAYED HOME TAKING CARE OF THE KIDS
DADDY DIDN'T MIND THE WAY IT WAS ARRANGED
TO HIS WAY OF THINKING, IT DIDN'T SEEM STRANGE
THEN ONE NIGHT MAMA MET HIM AT THE DOOR
'CAUSE THE KEY IN HIS HAND DIDN'T WORK ANYMORE
MAMA SAID "MORE THAN THE LOCKS ARE CHANGED,
THERE'S A NEW SET OF RULES TO THIS OLD GAME"
CHORUS
IT'S BEEN SOME TIME SINCE SHE LAID DOWN THE LAW
BUT DADDY DON'T SEEM TO MIND AT ALL
HE COMES STRAIGHT HOME WHEN THE WORK DAY'S THROUGH
HE'S EVEN DONE THE DISHES A TIME OR TWO
LATE LAST NIGHT WHEN THE LIGHTS WERE LOW
DADDY TOLD MAMA "I LOVE YOU SO"
EARLY THIS MORNING, MAMA SAID TO HIM
"YOU JUST MIGHT GET TO BE A DADDY AGAIN"
CHORUS
EVERYTHING'S BETTER ON THE HOME FRONT NOW
THEY'RE MEETING IN THE MIDDLE WORKING IT OUT
HE'S FINALLY FIGURED OUT HE'S GOT SOMETHING WORTH KEEPING
YEA NOW DADDY'S COME AROUND TO MAMA'S WAY OF THINKIN
YEAH DADDY'S COME AROUND TO MAMA'S WAY OF THINKIN
YEAH DADDY'S COME AROUND TO MAMA'S WAY OF THINKIN.
