[E] The lines on my daddy's face show how hard [B] he's labored.
He's standing all over the place on weak and strong [E] whiskey paper.
Raised a family of eight, talked about being [B] a good man.
Never looked at anyone with hate, tried to do the [Ebm] best that [E] he can.
[A] Said he had respect for me, never said [B] so when he was straight.
Anyhow, that's the way I want it to be.
I wonder if he's shy [E] or afraid.
Talked about his kids and wife and how he'd love them [B] to the end.
They were his main thoughts in life, for [Ebm] everybody else [E] remained a friend.
The lines on my daddy's face show how hard [B] he's labored.
He's been all over the place on weak and strong whiskey [E] paper.
