Daddy (I Need You Tonight)

Daddy was a country singer
 And he wrote the songs everybody played back in his day
 Daddy's gone but the songs still linger
 In the memory of the ones who can recall the way he played
 But I don't want to make a living, not the one my daddy had
 Hey, just because the old is good don't mean the new is bad
 And I don't sing the way my daddy did
 But you know I do alright
 And I don't say it like my daddy did
 But I need you tonight
 All my life I've been on stages
 You won't believe some of the places
 That I've played in my day
 I guess I've earned a lot of wages
 But not enough to match the dues that I've paid in my day
 And it's nice to find some people like you as I go from town to town
 'Cause as long as y'all are with me you know I'll be around
 No I don't sing the way my daddy did
 Hey you know I do alright
 And I don't say it like my daddy did
 But I need you tonight
 And I don't sing the way my daddy did
 But you know I do alright
 And I don't say it like my daddy did
 But I need you tonight
