They Don't Make 'Em Like My Daddy - Cal Smith[00:00:00]
I wasn't much more than a baby[00:00:09]
I thought he was a bear[00:00:11]
The way my daddy carried me around[00:00:14]
They said I learned to walk[00:00:18]
While holdin' on to just one finger[00:00:20]
On the hand of a man[00:00:23]
That stands at six-foot-three[00:00:24]
Not old enough to understand[00:00:27]
The meaning of depression[00:00:30]
Just something people[00:00:32]
Talked about a lot[00:00:33]
My daddy wasn't one[00:00:36]
That tried to make no big impressions[00:00:38]
Just one heck of a man[00:00:41]
That worked for what he got[00:00:42]
They don't make men like[00:00:45]
My daddy anymore[00:00:47]
Guess they've thrown away[00:00:50]
The pattern through the years[00:00:51]
In a great big land of freedom[00:00:54]
At a time we really need 'em[00:00:57]
They don't make 'em like[00:00:59]
My daddy anymore[00:01:00]
From the Johnson County coal camps[00:01:13]
To the hills of West Virginia[00:01:15]
My daddy hauled the timber for the mines[00:01:17]
Education didn't count so much as[00:01:22]
What you had born in you[00:01:24]
Like the will to live and a dream[00:01:26]
Of better times[00:01:28]
Daddy never took a handout[00:01:31]
We ate pinto beans a bacon[00:01:33]
But he worked to keep the wolf[00:01:35]
Back from the door[00:01:37]
And it only proves one thing to me[00:01:40]
When folks start belly achin'[00:01:42]
They don't make 'em like[00:01:44]
My daddy anymore[00:01:45]
They don't make 'em like[00:01:49]
My daddy anymore[00:01:50]
Guess they've thrown away the pattern[00:01:53]
Through the years[00:01:55]
In a great big land of freedom[00:01:58]
At a time we really need 'em[00:02:00]
They don't make 'em like[00:02:03]
My daddy anymore[00:02:04]
They don't make 'em like[00:02:07]
My daddy anymore[00:02:08]
