Daddy Had a Beer-Josh Thompson

Daddy Had a Beer - Josh Thompson That's me in that black and white On mama's right hip back in 79 Big sister on the couch curled up With raggedy ann And daddy had a beer in his hand I used to wait on the porch Every night about dark For that flat bed chevy to roll up in the yard Even twelve hours tired He still hugged his little man And daddy had a beer in his hand He liked to sip 'em slow make 'em last One too many was one he never had But watching the game Fishing or cutting the grass Daddy had a beer in his hand Yeah just about every saturday night We heard mama in the kitchen Saying you ain't right He'd be tugging at her apron Saying c'mon baby let's dance And daddy had a beer in his hand He liked to sip 'em slow make 'em last One too many was one he never had But watching the game Fishing or cutting the grass Yeah daddy had a beer in his hand I got this picture in my mind Of all the folks I love on the other side A little postcard greeting Sayin' welcome to the promised land I just had to laugh 'Cause daddy had a beer in his hand Yeah daddy had a beer in his hand
