Lyric
🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
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
Ringing in my earsDon’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, daddy, please don’t cryWhy 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 tonightDon’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, daddy, please don’t cry
Oh, daddy, please don’t cry
