Dolly Parton - Daddy Did His Best Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember when my daddy worked all day for just a dollar
And he never saved a penny, but at least the bills were paid
I've never seen a man work half as hard
And come home half as tired
Then give the Lord a tenth of all he made

[Chorus]
Daddy said I'm making payments on a mansion
And so many times, he's told me this old world is not his home
And he told me he'd been promised he'd receive a fair reward
Daddy did the best he could then left the rest up to the Lord

[Verse 2]
Now I've never seen a man that had more reason for complaining
But he'd smiled at me explaining how he never walked alone
When they called me to his deathbed
I remember how my daddy just looked up
And smiled and said I'm going home

[Chorus]
Daddy said I'm making payments on a mansion
And so many times, he's told me this old world is not his home
And he told me he'd been promised he'd receive a fair reward
Daddy did the best he could then left the rest up to the Lord
[Verse 3]
Since my daddy left this world for one much better
I've been watching people worrying more
Working for the things they can't afford
In a world that's filled with problems
No one's ever found the answers
To the things my daddy left up to the Lord

[Chorus]
Daddy said I'm making payments on a mansion
And so many times, he's told me this old world is not his home
And he told me he'd been promised he'd receive a fair reward
Daddy did the best he could then left the rest up to the Lord
