Daddy I don't mean to make you cry, Don't mean to keep you up at night Sitting on the front porch, Looking out for my headlights Say a prayer and count some sheep, Close your eyes and try to sleep Oh daddy don't, daddy don't worry about me You taught me everything I need to know So it's okay to let your baby go Oh daddy don't, daddy don't, daddy don't worry about me I know good and wrong from right Fire burns and boys tell lies And if it comes down to it, I know how to fight Well you know I know I can hold my own So it's okay to let your baby go Oh daddy don't, daddy don't, daddy don't worry about me Don't want you to see me cry It's bittersweet to say goodbye But you gave me wings, Now I've gotta fly You see I'm headed down to Tennessee I'm gonna do you proud you'll see Oh Oh Lifes a never ending turning twisting road But I know I can find my way back home Oh daddy don't, daddy don't, daddy don't worry about me Oh daddy don't, daddy don't, daddy don't worry about me Say a prayer and count some sheep Close your eyes and try to sleep Oh daddy don't, daddy don't worry about me
