(Dolly Parton)
|
My dear hard workin' daddy works his life away for us
|
That's the way that daddy shows to us his love
|
And Daddy's two hard working hands
|
They're callous and they're sore
|
And Daddy's workin' boots have walked a million miles or more
|
As long as I remember, I remember Daddy workin'
|
Workin' on the job or either on the farm
|
Tryin' to provide for the family that he loves
|
And Daddy's working boots have taken many steps for us
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Daddy's workin' boots have served as his foundation
|
Though just like him, they're tired and worn
|
For years they've helped him stand
|
Daddy's working boots have filled their obligation
|
They've walked that rocky road with a mighty, mighty man
|
|
Dear lord above, I know up there my Daddy's got a mansion
|
And a great reward that's long been overdue
|
And when it comes my Daddy's time to be with you in heaven
|
|
[Spoken:]
|
Won't cha let him walk your golden streets
|
In a pair of brand new golden boots
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Daddy's workin' boots
|
