Average White Band - Daddy's All Gone lyrics

I don't have much to say Thought I'd call you up anyway Just to try to show you the way That I feel today I miss you, baby I sure am on the road I don't need to say much more Just the same old well - known stranger That I was before It seems like yesterday now Daddy's all gone Only half way home He's holding on to the telephone Saying please don't let the show go on There's a bus every other hour There's even the midnight train But that don't leave me the power To see your face again It's not that simple You see there's a room full of smiling faces There's a man standing by the door Say it's time to change our places And get down on the floor k** 'em, baby Daddy's all gone He's just half way home He's holding on to the microphone Singing please don't make the show go on
