DADDY NEVER WAS THE CADILLAC KIND

We were poor when I was a youngin, don't remember ever going hungry.

They had money and I was jealous, I didn't know then what i know now.

Daddy said you can't judge a book by looking at it's cover,
G A
Its whats inside that really matters..
CHORUS

Daddy never was the cadillac kind, he said some things just glitter and shine

He taught that love was the one thing money couldn't buy
G A A

VERSE
D
I left home right out of high school, bought me a big car thought I was real cool.
G D
Cruisin' round the old neighborhood, I'd see Daddy after church on Sunday
G D
I say you'll have to go riding with me Someday, He just said no I never understood.

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

VERSE
Bm G
It took awhile but now I'm grown I've settled down with kids of my own,
A
The more I give the more they want,
D
Daddy left us last November, I don't remember him ever looking better
G D
All laid out in his Sunday best..
D
I'm sure instead of all the attention, All he every wanted was a few words mentioned,
G D A
A simple man simply laid to rest, As they drove him away in that big cadillac
G A
With a tear in my eye I had to laugh.
