Oh, Pappy, oh, Pappy
I'm gonna make you happy
Oh, Pappy, I'm comin'
Way down there where the cotton, corn and taters grow

Stop plantin', stop hoein'
I'll keep your cotton growin'
Oh, Pappy, I'm goin'
Right back there where I left you long ago

I can see you in the evenin'
Free from every care
With your old clay pipe a-smokin'
While you're talkin', you'll be rockin' in your easy chair

Oh, Pappy, oh, Pappy
We're gonna be so happy
I need ya, I loves ya
And I'll never leave my Pappy anymore
