Daddy's Gone To Knoxville Lyrics

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.
