Deadbeat Dad Lyrics

A failed marriage left the mother to care

 Love is gone but the kid s are still there

 A broken home has become commonplace

 The look of anguish on the child s face

 Gone and lost

 

 Being there just for conception

 Made a promise that was all a deception

 Gone and lost

 

 [Chorus 1:]

 Deadbeat dad, support he won t pay

 Deadbeat dad always staying away

 Deadbeat dad in disgrace and despair

 Deadbeat dad, to the kids it s not fair

 

 Biology can only go so far

 When your gone it leaves a scar

 Children learn to live without

 Being there is what it s all about

 Gone and lost

 Pay the cost

 

 [Chorus 2:]

 Deadbeat dad lost in a haze

 Deadbeat dad set in his ways

 Deadbeat dad, a loser at heart

 Deadbeat dad won t do his part

 

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad

 

 [Chorus 1]

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad

 Deadbeat dad
