DADDY BROUGHT HOME
A PHOTOGRAPH
FROM THE PAPER
YESTERDAY
IT SHOWED A LINE
OF WAGONS
MOVING SOMEPLACE
FAR AWAY
THAT PICTURE MADE
MY DADDY SMILE
AND MADE
MY MAMA CRY
SEEMS LIKE DADDY'S
WAGONLOAD OF DREAMS
HAD LONG SINCE
PASSED HER BY
BUT THE DREAM
THAT MAKES
A SPARROW FLY
CAN MAKE
AN EAGLE FALL
ONE THAT MAKES
A RICH MAN MONEY
IT AIN'T NO DREAM AT ALL
IT'S A CRYIN' SHAME
TO WAKE UP JUST TO FIND
IT'S ALL BEEN BROKE
IN TWO
CAREFUL WHAT
YOU'RE DREAMIN'
CAUSE IT SOMEDAY
MAY COME TRUE
WELL HE TALKED ON ALL
THROUGH SUPPERTIME
'BOUT THE GOOD
PROSPECTOR'S LIFE
HE COULDN'T SEE MAMA
DIDN'T WANT TO BE
NO GOOD
PROSPECTOR'S WIFE
SAID WE BEST SELL OUT
AND GO BEFORE
THE WEATHER TURNS
TOO COLD
MAYBE BUY OURSELVES
AN EXTRA HORSE
TO CARRY
ALL THAT GOLD
AND THE DREAM
THAT MAKES
A SPARROW FLY
CAN MAKE
AN EAGLE FALL
ONE THAT MAKES
A RICH MAN MONEY
IT AIN'T NO DREAM AT ALL
IT'S A CRYIN' SHAME
TO WAKE UP JUST TO FIND
IT'S ALL BEEN BROKE
IN TWO
CAREFUL WHAT
YOU'RE DREAMIN'
CAUSE IT SOMEDAY
MAY COME TRUE
8 BAR
INSTRUMENTAL
BREAK
I GOT UP
SOON AS THE
FIRST LIGHT CAME
TO START
THE MORNING FIRE
WONDERIN' IF
MY MAMA'S WILL
HAD COOLED
THAT MAN'S DESIRE
AND INSIDE THE STOVE
UPON THE COALS
AN ASHEN PAPER LAY
IT WAS A GHOSTLY
LINE OF WAGONS
MOVING SOMEPLACE
FAR AWAY
AND THE DREAM
THAT MAKES
A SPARROW FLY
CAN MAKE
AN EAGLE FALL
ONE THAT MAKES
A RICH MAN MONEY
IT AIN'T NO DREAM AT ALL
IT'S A CRYIN' SHAME
TO WAKE UP JUST TO FIND
IT'S ALL BEEN BROKE
IN TWO
CAREFUL WHAT
YOU'RE DREAMIN'
CAUSE IT SOMEDAY
MAY COME TRUE
OH BE CAREFUL
WHAT YOU'RE DREAMIN'
CAUSE IT SOMEDAY
MAY COME TRUE
