The sun sinks low in the western lands

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

And a woman s heart is like the wind

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

And he could not put her from his mind

And love is strong and it will not die

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

Protect me now from what I am

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

For I m in too deep and I cannot swim

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

And he cursed his hands and he cursed his tongue

For what he d said for what he d done

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

Love love love s obsession

What keeps a man alive

By some strange possession

I stay safe inside

My heart s on probation

It was my first time

This world world of wonders

Stick your head outside

Now the ass can speak but he don t say much

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

His words of wisdom come but once

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

So build your house on solid ground

And stay indoors when the rain comes down

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down

Go down daddy go-down daddy oh daddy go-down
