Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind

作詞:Dave Gibson, Bernie Nelson

We were poor when I was a youngun
I don't remember ever goin' hungry
Daddy made sure, we didn't do without
I went to school with some of these fellas
They had money and I was jealous
I didn't know then what I know now

Daddy'd say, 'You can't judge a book by lookin' at it's cover
It's what's inside that really matters'

Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
He said, 'Some things just glitter and shine'
He taught us that love was the one thing money couldn't buy
Daddy never was the Cadillac kind

I left home right out of high school
Bought me a big car thought I was real cool
Cruisin' around the old neighborhood
I'd see daddy after Church on Sunday
I'd say you'll have to go ridin' with me someday
He just said no, I never understood

He asked me how I bought it, I told him on credit
Daddy just smiled, I'll never forget it

Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
He said, 'Some things just glitter and shine'
He taught us that love was the one thing money couldn't buy
Daddy never was the Cadillac kind

It took a while but now I'm grown
I've settled down with kids of my own
The more I give them
The more they want

Daddy left us last November
I don't remember him ever lookin' better
All laid out in his Sunday best
I'm sure instead of all that attention
All he'd of wanted was a few words mentioned
A simple man, simply laid to rest

As they drove him away in that big Cadillac
With a tear in my eye, I had to laugh

'Cause daddy never was the Cadillac kind
He said, 'Some things just glitter and shine'
Just this once I hope daddy enjoyed the ride
'Cause daddy never was a Cadillac kind
And no my daddy never was a Cadillac kind
