Secrets in My Daddy's Eyes
guitar chords lyrics
I was born on the first day of the yearback in fifty nine
My mama tells me she's still madat that daddy of mine auf meinen Vater
Apparently he called to say he was stuck upin the floods west of Proserpine
To this day she reckons he was up therewith his mates drinking bottles of wine
And she's probably right
It's a story he still denies
Just goes to show there are still some
Secrets there in my daddy's eyes He was definitely a country man sellingcattle and sheep
Worked a fourteen hour day so mum and thefive kids had enough to eat
But instead of the cash he'd come home at theend of the week just with a bag of wheat
Mama said those farmers aren't the only oneshavin' a hard time just to make ends meet
And she's probably right
It's a story he still denies
Just goes to show there are still some
Secrets there in my daddy's eyes Oh but when he sat down at that old baby grand
It's a story he still denies
Just goes to show there are still some
Secrets there in my daddy's eyes Oh but when he sat down at that old baby grand
The history of hardship and joy flowed rightthrough his hands
And we'd lift our little voices in songs justto get close to the man
And mama would say come on now John
I need a hand
She was probably right
It's a story he still denies
Just goes to show there are still some
Secrets there in my daddy's eyes
Goes to show I still love those secretsthere in my daddy's eyes
