Lyrics

[Chorus] Your hair has turned to silver I know you're fading too Daddy, dear old daddy I'm comin' back to you Made my boyhood happy Still, I longed to roam I've a-had my way, but now I'll stay I long for you and for home [Verse 1] Daddy, you shared my sorrows and joys You tried to bring me up right But still I remember yous a-one of the boys Now I'm starting back home tonight [Chorus] Your hair has turned to silver I know you're fadin' too Daddy, dear old daddy I'm comin' back to you Did my boyhood happy Still, I longed to roam I've a-had my way, but now I'll stay I long for you and for home [Bridge] This here's the last verse His papa's hair had turned to silver when he got home [Verse 2] I'm dreaming tonight of an old Southern town The best friend I ever had Been wonderin' and worryin' and rovin' 'round Now I'm goin' back home to my dad [Chorus] Your hair has turned to silver I know you're fading too Daddy, dear old daddy I'm comin' back to you Made my boyhood happy Still, I longed to roam I've a-had my way, but now I'll stay I long for you and for home
