1.WGe were poor when I was a youngin' I don't remember ever going hungry Daddy made sure we didn't do without I went to school with some of these fellas They had money and I was jealous I didn't know then what I know now
Daddy'd say "Gyou can't judge a book by looking at its cover It's what's insCide that really mDatters
C.Daddy never wCas the Cadillac kGind He said some things just glitter and shDine He taught us that lCove was the Done thing monCey couldn't bGuy Daddy never wCas the Cadillac kGind
2.I left home right out of high school Bought me a big car thought I was real cool Cruisin' around the old neighborhood I'd see Dad after church on Sunday I'd say you'll have to go riding with me someday He just said no, I never understood He asked me how I bought it I told him on credit Daddy just smiled I'll never forget it Repeat Chorus Bridge
It took a whCile but now I'm grGown I've sCettled down with kids of my Gown The mCore I give them The more they wDant
3.Daddy left us last November I don't remember him ever looking better All laid out in his Sunday best I'm sure instead of all the attention All he'd of wanted was a few words mentioned A simple man simply laid to rest As they drove him away in that big Cadillac With a tear in my eye I had to laugh C.Daddy never was the Cadillac kind He said some things just glitter and shine Just this once I hope Daddy enjoyed the ride 'Cause Daddy never was the Cadillac kind No my Daddy never was the Cadillac kind
