Daddy`s Gone To Knoxville — текст песни (Mark Knopfler)

Oh, you`re gonna miss your daddy when he`s gone
When he`s gone
Yeah, you`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
Oh, you`re gonna miss your daddy when he`s gone

Oh, I`d rather have a dollar than a dime
Than a dime
Yeah, I`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
Oh, I`d rather have a dollar than a dime

Oh, you better love your daddy while you can
While you can
Yeah, you 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
Oh, you`d better love your daddy while you can

Oh, your daddy`s gone to Knoxville now
Knoxville now
Yeah, your daddy`s gone to Knoxville now
Knoxville now
Daddy`s gone down that Knoxville road
The dog never barked and the cock never crowed
Oh, your daddy`s gone to Knoxville now
