[SARAH]<br />

Ooh...<br />

<br />

Daddy played piano,<br />

Played it very well.<br />

Music from those hands could<br />

Catch you like a spell.<br />

He coul dmake you love him<br />

'Fore the tune was done.<br />

You have your daddy's hands.<br />

You are your daddy's son.<br />

<br />

Ooh...<br />

<br />

Daddy never knew<br />

That you were on your way.<br />

<br />

He had other ladies<br />

And other tunes to play.<br />

When he up and left me,<br />

I just up and run.<br />

<br />

Only thing in my head-<br />

You were your daddy's son.<br />

<br />

Couldn't hear no music,<br />

Couldn't see no light.<br />

Mama, she was frightened,<br />

Crazy from the fright.<br />

Tears without no comfort,<br />

Screams without no sound.<br />

Only darkness and pain,<br />

The anger and pain,<br />

The blood and the pain!<br />

I buried my hear in the ground!<br />

In the ground-<br />

When I buried you in the ground.<br />

<br />

Daddy played piano.<br />

Bet he's playin' still.<br />

Mama can't forget him.<br />

Don't suppose I will.<br />

God wants no excuses.<br />

I have only one:<br />

You had your daddy's hands.<br />

Forgive me.<br />

You were your daddy's son.
