Ernest Tubb - Daddy when is mommy coming home

^CThey were separated one ^Fyear ago that ^Cday The court had given him their only ^G7child

^CWhen play time was all finished he ^Fclimbed on daddy's ^Cknee And said with teardrops ^G7showing through a ^Csmile

Daddy when is mommy ^Fcoming ^Chome Each day you say it won't ^G7be very long

I always see you cry since ^Cmommy said goodbye And ^D7went away and left us all ^G7alone

Each ^Cnight I kneel beside my ^Fbed and ^Cthen I always pray that ^D7she'll come back ^Fagain

I wonder if she knows that ^Cwe're so all ^D7alone Daddy when is ^G7mommy coming ^Chome
