Ohyou re gonna miss your daddy when he s gone
When he s gone
Yeahyou re gonna miss your daddy when he s gone
When he s gone
Daddy s gone down that gallatin road
The hen never laid and the corn never growed
Ohyou re gonna miss your daddy when he s gone
OhI d rather have a dollar than a dime
Than a dime
YeahI d rather have a dollar than a dime
Than a dime
Daddy s gone down that crossville track
If he can t make a dollar then he ain t comin back
OhI d rather have a dollar than a dime
Ohyou better love your daddy while you can
While you can
Yeahyou better love your daddy while you can
While you can
Daddy s gone south on the natchez trace
If the can t show the money then he don t show his face
Ohyou d better love your daddy while you can
Ohyour daddy s gone to knoxville now
Knoxville now
Yeahyour daddy s gone to knoxville now
Knoxville now
Daddy s gone down that knoxville road
The dog never barked and the cock never crowed
Ohyour daddy s gone to knoxville now.
