DADDY'S HOME - Answer Song




ANSWER SONG
A THOUSAND MILES AWAY
THE HEARTBEATS





"DADDY'S HOME" - Shep & The Limelites 
Written by: James Sheppard and William H. Miller
You're my love
You're my angel
You're the girl of my dreams
And I'd like to thank you
For waiting patiently
Daddy's home, your Daddy's home, to stay

How I've waited for this moment
To be by your side
Your best friend wrote and told me
You had tear drops in you eyes
Daddy's home, your Daddy's home, to stay

It wasn't on a Sunday
(Monday and Tuesday went by)
It wasn't on a Tuesday afternoon
(All I could do was cry)
But I made a promise
That you treasure
And I made it back home to you

How I've waited for this moment
To be by your side
Your best friend wrote and told me
You had tear drops in your eyes
Daddy's…


Answer Song:
"A THOUSAND MILES AWAY" - The Heartbeats 1957   
Written by: James Sheppard and William H. Miller
You're a thousand miles away-ay
Bu-you-t I still have your love to remember you by
Oh, my dar-are-are-arling, dry your eyes
Daddy's coming home soon

On my knees every day-ay
All I do is pray, baby, just for you
Hope you a-a-a-always want me too
Daddy's coming home soon

It may be on a Sunday morning
It may be on a Tuesday afternoon
But no matter what the day is
I'm going to make it my business to get home soon

You're (a thousand miles away)
Bu-you-ut I still have your love to remember you by
Oh, my dar-are-are-arling, dry your eyes
Daddy's coming ho-ome so-oo-on
