Today I stumbled from my bed
With thunder crashing in my head
My pillow still wet
From last night tears
And as I think of giving up
A voice inside my coffee-cup
Kept crying out
And ringing in my ears
Don t cry daddy
Daddy, please don t cry
Daddy, you ve still got me and little Tommy
Together we ll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, daddy, please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again
Oh, dad------dy, please don t cry
Why are children always first
To feel the pain and hurt the worst
It s true, but somehow
It just don t seem right
Cause ev ry time I cry I know
It hurts my little children so
I wonder will it be the same tonight
Don t cry daddy
Daddy, please don t cry
Daddy, you ve still got me and little Tommy
Together we ll find a brand new mommy
Daddy, daddy, please laugh again
Daddy ride us on your back again
Oh, dad------dy, please don t cry
Oh, dad------dy, please don t cry
