[02:46.00]Mama never seemed to miss the finer things in life

[02:46.00]if she did, she never did say so to daddy

[02:46.00]she never wanted to be more than

[02:46.00]a mother and a wife

[02:46.00]if she did, she never did say so to daddy

[02:46.00]the only thing that seemed

[02:46.00]to be inportant in her life

[02:46.00]was to make a house a home and to make us happy

[02:46.00]Mama never wanted anymore than what she had

[02:46.00]if she did, she never did say so to daddy

[02:46.00]He often left her alone,

[02:46.00]she didn't mind the stayin' home

[02:46.00]if she did, she never did say so to daddy

[02:46.00]and she never missed

[02:46.00]the flowers and the cards he never sent her

[02:46.00]if she did, she never did say so to daddy

[02:46.00]being took for granted was a that thing she accepted

[02:46.00]and she didn't need those things to make her happy

[02:46.00]and she didn't seem to notice

[02:46.00]that he didn't kiss and hold her

[02:46.00]if she did, she never did say so to daddy

[02:46.00]One morning we awoke just to find a note

[02:46.00]Mama carefully wrote and left to daddy

[02:46.00]and as he began to read it out ears could not beleive it

[02:46.00]the words she had written there to daddy

[02:46.00]she said, "the kids are old enough,

[02:46.00]they don't need me very much

[02:46.00]I've gone in search for love I need so badly

[02:46.00]I have needed you so long

[02:46.00]but I just can't keep holding on"

[02:46.00]she never meant to come back home

[02:46.00]if she did, she never did say so to daddy

[02:46.00]Good-bye to daddy
