Porter Wagoner - Daddy's Working Boots lyrics

rate me

I have many fond mem'ries of my daddy

One of the things I remember most was dad's hard work and his workin' boots

My poor hard workin' daddy worked his life away for us

That's the way my daddy showed to us his love

And daddy's two hard workin' hands were calloused and were sore

Daddy's workin' boots have walked a million miles or more

As long as I remember I remember daddy workin'

Workin' on the job or either on the farm

Trying to provide for the family that he loved

Daddy's workin' boots have taken many steps for us

Daddy's workin' boots they served us his foundation

Just like him they're tired and worn for years they helped him stand

Daddy's workin' boots have filled their obligation

They walked that rocky road with a mighty mighty man

[ guitar ]

Dear Lord above I know up there my daddy's got a mansion

And a great reward that long was overdue

And since my daddy's gone away to be with you in heaven

I know he's walkin' your golden streets in a pair of brand new golden boots

Daddy's workin' boots...

My daddy's workin' boots
