Don't Cry Daddy

Today I stumbled from my bed With thunder crashing in my head My pillow still wet From last night tears    And as I think of giving up A voice inside my coffee-cup Kept crying out And ringing in my ears       Don't cry daddy Daddy, please don't cry       Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy Together we'll find a brand new mommy Daddy, daddy, please laugh again Daddy ride us on your back again Oh, dad - - - dy, please don't cry (Instrumental) Why are children always first To feel the pain and hurt the worst It's true, but somehow It just don't seem right      'Cause ev'ry time I cry I know It hurts my little children so I wonder will it be the same tonight     Don't cry daddy Daddy, please don't cry       Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy Together we'll find a brand new mommy Daddy, daddy, please laugh again Daddy ride us on your back again Oh, dad - - - dy, please don't cry       Oh, dad - - - dy, please don't cry
