Daddys All Gone lyrics

Daddy`s All Gone` is a James Taylor song. A live IG version appears
on `Shades of Indigo.` If you ask me, that song alone is worth the
price of the disc. Em really shines, I think. Especially on the
word `train` that goes on forever... what SOUL... ooooh.
And her solo guitar arrangement is cool, too.

Daddy`s All Gone.

Don`t have much to say
Thought I`d call you up anyway
Just to try and tell you the way
That I feel today -
Oh, I miss you baby.

Sure, I`m on the road
I don`t need to say much more
Just the same old well known stranger
That I was before -
Seems like yesterday.

Daddy`s all gone
He`s just a halfway home
He`s holding on to the telephone
Singing `Please -
Don`t let the show go on.`

There`s a bus every other hour
Even a midnight train
But that don`t leave me the power
To see your face again -
It`s not that simple anymore.

You see, there`s a room full of smiling faces
And there`s a man standing by the door
When he says it`s time we take our places
And get down on the floor -
Oh, I`d like to kill him, baby.

Daddy`s all gone
He`s just a halfway home
He`s hanging on to the microphone
Singing `Please -
Don`t let the show go on
