TALKED
TO MY DADDY ON THE PHONE TODAY HE
TOOK A DRIVE TO THE SHORE, JUST TO GET AWAY EATING
ALL BY HIMSELF, WITH HIS TONIC AND GIN HE
SEEMS SO HAPPY WATCHING THE BOATS COME IN Chorus: EVERYTIME
THAT I ASK HIM ”DADDY HOW YOU BEEN” HE’S
ALWAYS DOING JUST FINE, HE’S LIKE A POLITICIAN NO
ACHES AND PAINS, YEAH EVERYTHING’S JUST PERFECT HE SAYS, AND IT’S A PERFECT
