I asked my dad how did he quit smokin'
He said, "Son, one day I saw you tokin'
On a half-smoked cigarette
He left layin' by his tools"
He said, "I couldn't have been more than nine or ten
When I looked up at him with a cat-eatin' grin
And said, 'Look at me, Daddy, I'm the Marlboro Man
I'm just like you'"
I did my best to step in every footprint that he made
I stretched my legs as far as they'd go to chase after him and say
With you, Daddy, take me with you, Daddy
Everywhere you're goin' to, I just wanna be with you
Right with you, Daddy, don't leave me, Daddy
Don't you know that's right where I belong?
Six weeks shy of twenty-one
Daddy called and said, "I got some bad news, son
Doctor says I ain't got very long
And I ain't told your mama yet"
I said, "Daddy, I'll be on the next flight home
That ain't the kinda news you oughta break alone"
Didn't break down 'til I hung up the phone
I hate them cigarettes
He put his big old arms around me
The moment I stepped off that plane
He said, "Son, you didn't have to come"
But all that I could say was
With you, Daddy, take me with you, Daddy
Everywhere you're goin' to, I just wanna be with you
Right with you, Daddy, don't leave me, Daddy
Don't you know that's right where I belong?
Daddy was unconscious the last three days of his life
But I stayed there right beside his bed
And I cried like a baby, but I knew he'd be alright
When he smiled and whispered, "My sweet Lord"
Reached out his hand and said
With you, Daddy, take me with you, Daddy
Everywhere you're goin' to, I just wanna be with you
Right with you, Daddy, don't leave me, Daddy
Don't you know that's right where I belong?
With you, Daddy, take me with you, Daddy
Everywhere you're goin' to, I just wanna be with you
Right with you, Daddy, don't leave me, Daddy
Don't you know that's right where I belong?
