Well, Your Daddy Was Wrong Lyrics

Your Daddy said I was trash, that we'd be over in a flash,

Well, your Daddy was wrong

Your Mama said I'm a boozer, you'd waste your life with such a loser,

Well, your Daddy was wrong

And now we contemplate the mess we made of our life together

You, you thought that you knew better than your mother and your father

And you got hitched with Mr. Loser

And then we had to elope because your Dad was such a dope

He'd never give me your hand

In my F150 we drove, fueled with liquor and some hope

That we'd be fine in the end

Too late to expiate the mess we made of our lives together

You, you thought that Mr. Trouble wouldn't leave a trail of rubble

In your heart and in your life

Oh, your daddy, oh, your daddy, he was wrong

(And all your dreams were gone)

Oh, your daddy, oh, mistaken all along

(You thought that you knew better and could never do no wrong)

Oh your daddy, always tries to put me down

(And in your oven a bun)

Now, your daddy, now he got himself a song

(You could neither call nor down the shots and you were stuck with Mr Hot)

When we were down on our luck, had made a home inside my truck

I thought of reaching for my Glock

But it was you at the wheel when up the driveway with a squeal

We reached your folks' domicile

And as we explicated the mess we made of our life together

They, they took the little one with a smile and without harm

As if we'd not gone on the lam

And all your tears went dry

Your Mama said the baby's fine and everything's alright

Your Daddy said "my son, let bygones be bygones"

But still your Daddy had been wrong

Oh, your daddy, oh, your daddy, he was wrong

(And all your tears went dry)

Oh, your daddy, oh, mistaken all along

(Your Mama said the baby's fine and everything's alright)

Oh, your daddy, oh, your dad is such a clown

(Your Daddy said "my son…")

Now, your daddy, now he got himself a song

("...let bygones be bygones" but still your Daddy had been wrong)
