Dillinger Escape Plan

Dillinger Escape Plan - Come To Daddy lyrics

(Dolly Parton - Dorothy Jo Hope)

Daddy was an old time preacher man

He preached the word of God throughout the land

He praeached so plain a child could understand

Yes, daddy was an old time preacher man.

He told the people of the need to pray

He talked about God's wrath on Judgement Day

He preached about that great eternity

He preached hell so hot that you could feel the heat.

Daddy was an old time preacher man

And Leona would get up to testify

As we'd sing in the sweet by and by

Then we'd sing I'm on my way to Canaan's Land

Yes, daddy was an old time preacher man.

Revivals and camps meetin's with four weeks

Folks came from all around to hear him preach

Daddy said if one is saved it's worth it all

But the aisles were always filled to altar call.

Daddy was an old time preacher man

And Leona would get up to testify

As we'd sing in the sweet by and by

Then we'd sing I'm on my way to Canaan's Land

Yes, daddy was an old time preacher man.

Daddy worked for God but asked no pay

For he believed that God provides away

We never had a lot but we got by

I guess it's cause the Lord was on my daddy's side.

Yes, daddy was an old time preacher man

In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore

I'm on my way to Canaan's Land

Yes, daddy was an old time preacher man.

In the sweet by and by we shall meet on that beautiful shore

I'm on my way to Canaan's Land

Yes, daddy was an old time preacher man...
