HOLD ON DADDY

Everyone succumbs and listens,
breezing in and bye forever.
Hold on daddy, won't you stay awhile?

In this talking town, a river
we can barely hear, but listen.
It's easy daddy, and when the chips are down,
I am sure the Lord has mercy for my dad.

When our body gives completely
from all the body's wants aplenty.
In the morning, what is dew is rust, you be sure.
In the evening, once from dust, again to dust.
We never wanted much.

I can take your torch the farthest,
but carry it with me a little.
Hold on daddy, David's on his way.
Come on daddy, your virgin brides can wait a little more.

He's my daddy, just this gentle cannonball
who never wanted much, and along the way
he made sure we never wanted.
We never wanted.
We never wanted.
We never wanted.
We never wanted.
We never wanted.
We never wanted.
We never wanted.
We never wanted.
We never wanted anything but our dad.
