E
Momma never seemed to miss the finer things in life
E B7
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
B7
She never wanted to be more than mother and a wife
B7 E
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
E
The only things that seemed to be important in her life
E E7 A
Was to make our house a home and make us happy
A E
Momma never wanted anymore than what she had
B7 E
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
He often left her all alone but she didn't mind the stayin' home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
And she never missed the flowers and the cards he never sent her
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
Being took for granted was a thing that she accepted
And she didn't need those things to make her happy
And she didn't even seem to notice that he didn't kiss and hold her
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
A
One morning we awoke just to find the note
A B7
That momma carefully wrote and left to daddy
A
And as he began to read it our ears could not believe it
A B7
The words that she had written there to daddy
She said our kids are old enough and they don't need me very much
And I've gone in search for love I need so badly
I have needed you so long but I just can't keep holdin' on, she never meant to come back home
If she did, she never did say so to daddy
Good-bye to daddy
