Daddy Never Was the Cadillac Kind

written by: Dave Gibson
Bernie Nelson

Performed by Confederate Railroad on Notorious


[Intro]
G

G
1.We were poor when I was a youngin`
I don`t remember ever going hungry
Daddy made sure we didn`t do without
I went to school with some of these fellas
They had money and I was jealous
I didn`t know then what I know now

G
Daddy`d say you can`t judge a book by looking at its cover
C D
It`s what`s inside that really matters

C G
C.Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
D
He said some things just glitter and shine
C D C G
He taught us that love was the one thing money couldn`t buy
C G
Daddy never was the Cadillac kind

2.I left home right out of high school
Bought me a big car thought I was real cool
Cruisin` around the old neighborhood
I`d see Dad after church on Sunday
I`d say you`ll have to go riding with me someday
He just said no, I never understood

He asked me how I bought it I told him on credit
Daddy just smiled I`ll never forget it

Repeat Chorus

Bridge
C G
It took a while but now I`m grown
C G
I`ve settled down with kids of my own
C
The more I give them
D
The more they want


3.Daddy left us last November
I don`t remember him ever looking better
All laid out in his Sunday best
I`m sure instead of all the attention
All he`d of wanted was a few words mentioned
A simple man simply laid to rest

As they drove him away in that big Cadillac
With a tear in my eye I had to laugh

C.Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
He said some things just glitter and shine
Just this once I hope Daddy enjoyed the ride
`Cause Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
No my Daddy never was the Cadillac kind

C
