James Taylor - Daddy’s All Gone lyrics

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 a 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

Says it's time to change our places

And get down on the floor

Kill '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
