Walkin’ Daddy
[Verse 1]
I'm walkin' daddy, in the steps that you put down
I'm walkin' daddy, in the steps that you put down
I'm walkin' daddy, and I know now where I'm bound

[Verse 2]
I'm walkin' daddy, and this road is dark and long
I'm walkin' daddy, and this road is dark and long
I'm walkin' daddy, and your blood is in me strong

[Verse 3]
I'm walkin' daddy, where the Jack's Fork river bends
Down in Missoura, where the Jack's Fork river bends
With you and mom and sister and all of our dear friends

[Verse 4]
Ain't no road a good road, till it's free to everyone
Ain't no road a good road, till it's free to everyone
I'm walkin' daddy, Father, Holy Ghost and Son

[Verse 5]
Ain't no sorrow can dim the love come shinin' through
Ain't no sorrow can dim the love come shinin' through
I'm walkin' daddy, and I know what I'm here to do

[Verse 6]
To be of use and try to help the deal along
To be of use and try to hеlp the deal along
I'm walkin' daddy and I'm just gonna keep walkin' on
