I don't have much to say Thought I'd call you up any-way Just to try to show you the way That I feel today Oh, I miss you ba-by I sure am on the road I don't need to say much more Just the same old well-known stranger That I was before It seems like yesterday now Daddy's all gone Only halfway home He's holding on to the telephone Saying, Please don't let the show go on. There's a bus every other hour There's even the midnight train But that don't leave me the power To see your face again } It's not that simple You see, there's a room full of smiling faces There's a man standin' by the door Says it's time to change our places And get down on the floor } Kill 'em, baby Daddy's all gone He's just halfway home He's holding on to the microphone Singing, Please don't make the show go on. - - }
