Mama never seemed to miss the finer things in life[00:00:08]
If she did she never did say so to daddy[00:00:11]
She never wanted to be more than[00:00:31]
A mother and a wife[00:00:37]
If she did she never did say so to daddy[00:00:42]
The only thing that seemed[00:00:45]
To be inportant in her life[00:00:48]
Was to make a house a home and to make us happy[00:00:53]
Mama never wanted anymore than what she had[00:01:04]
If she did she never did say so to daddy[00:01:08]
He often left her alone[00:01:10]
She didn't mind the stayin' home[00:01:14]
If she did she never did say so to daddy[00:01:21]
And she never missed[00:01:27]
The flowers and the cards he never sent her[00:01:30]
If she did she never did say so to daddy[00:01:33]
Being took for granted was a that thing she accepted[00:01:35]
And she didn't need those things to make her happy[00:01:39]
And she didn't seem to notice[00:01:41]
That he didn't kiss and hold her[00:01:43]
If she did she never did say so to daddy[00:01:45]
One morning we awoke just to find a note[00:01:47]
Mama carefully wrote and left to daddy[00:01:50]
And as he began to read it out ears could not beleive it[00:01:53]
The words she had written there to daddy[00:01:56]
She said the kids are old enough[00:02:00]
They don't need me very much[00:02:04]
I've gone in search for love I need so badly[00:02:05]
I have needed you so long[00:02:08]
But I just can't keep holding on[00:02:21]
She never meant to come back home[00:02:23]
If she did she never did say so to daddy[00:02:26]
Good-bye to daddy[00:02:27]
