Lyrics
Daddy’s Gone Home
©Nikole Potulsky
I rest my face in my tired hands
Lean on the shoulders of my closest friends
Put my faith into god’s great plan
My Daddy’s gone home
Oh my daddy went home too soon
A simple man who simply hung the moon
Buried his body this afternoon
My daddy’s gone home
CHORUS
Don’t weep no more
Child weep no more
The gates are open
Weep no more
VERSE 2
I go along with the preachers plan
Even though I’ll never understand
How he’s better off in the god’s great hands
My daddy’s gone home
I get control of what I should not say
Shake the hands and wipe the tears away
Keep it together through Amazing Grace
My daddy’s gone home
CHORUS
Don’t weep no more
Child weep no more
The gates are open
Weep no more
CHORUS
Don’t weep no more
Child weep no more
The gates are open
Weep no more
