Sawyer Brown - With You Daddy lyrics

I asked my dad how did he quit smoking He said, "Son one day I saw you tokin" on a Half smoked cigarette, he left laying by his tools He said I couldn't have been more than nine or ten When I looked at him with a cat eating grin, and said "Look at me daddy, I'm the Marlboro man, just like you." I did my best to step in every footprint daddy made I'd stretch my legs as far as they'd go Chase after him and say With you daddy, take me with you daddy Everywhere you're going to, I just wanna be with you Right with you daddy, don't leave me daddy Don't you know that's right where I belong Six weeks shy of twenty-one Daddy called and said I got some bad news son Doctor says I ain't got very long and I ain't told your mama yet I said, "Daddy I'll be on the next flight home" That ain't the kind of news you ought to break alone I didn't break down 'til I hung up the phone Damn them cigarettes He put his big old arms around me the moment I stepped off the plane He said, "Son you didn't have to come" All that I could say With you daddy, take me with you daddy Everywhere you're going to, I just wanna be with you Right with you daddy, don't leave me daddy Don't you know that's right where I belong Daddy wasn't conscious the last three days of his life But I stayed there right beside his bed And I cried like a baby, but I knew he'd be alright When he smiled and whispered, "Oh my God" Reached out his hand and said With you daddy, take me with you daddy Everywhere you're going to, I just wanna be with you Right with you daddy, don't leave me daddy Don't you know that's right where I belong
