Sweet Lucy - EmiSunshine

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh mama, where has he been

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh, why is he gone again

Daddy was good to us children

He read to us every night

How God takes care of us children

In his favorite scripture of Psalms

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh mama, where has he been

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh, why is he gone again

Daddy had quit all his drinking

Until Lucy died last Friday night

Now mama, where is our daddy

He left with such pain in his eyes

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh mama, where has he been

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh, why is he gone again

The preacher spoke sweet about Lucy

How she rests now in Jesus' sweet arms.

But nobody talked about daddy

How he hasn’t come back to the farm.

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh mama, where has he been

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh, why is he gone again

Lucy’s been gone for a season

Daddy was found at her grave.

Holding his hand on his Bible

He prayed his last prayer on that day.

Oh mama, where is our daddy

Oh mama, where has he been

He’s gone to be with Sweet Lucy

Jesus carried him home with Him.
