My Daddy Never Was Lyrics

The second line of the second verse ends differently than the second line of the
first verse.
CAPO IV
INTRO: G Bm C D
My boss'll tell you that I've been to work all week on time
And I ain't had no liquor on my breath
Ain't no kind of secret I've been known to take a drink
And it's made me do some things that I regret
Loretta said this ain't no kind of way to raise a family
And one night she called it quits and called a cab
She left the clothes out on the clothes line and the dishes in the sink
So I guess she knows that she ain't comin' back
CHORUS:
But I just wanna see my kids, I just wanna hold my girls
Heaven knows I ain't got much of nothin' else in this whole world
I just wanna be around enough to know that they've been loved
I just wanna be the daddy my daddy never was
Now lately she's been knowing this ol' boy she met in church
And I can't say she's wrong for wantin' more
I gave him the right to tell my wife that I can't come around
The night I knocked a hole in her front door
And Loretta took my keys and she made me wait outside
But she didn't call the law she called a cab
And as I pulled away I saw somethin' in her eyes
So I reckon that she knows I ain't so bad
My boss'll tell you that I've been to work all week on time
C D (let ring)
And I ain't had no liquor on my breath
OUTRO: G Bm C D G
