Daddy Told Me So Poem by Coreatha mccoy

Daddy use to say
them boys today don't play with toys today
there not like we was
they act like there born yesterday


I should have listen to daddy
I wouldn't be where i am today
he said i been there i done that
i was once a boy but it wasn't yesterday

Daddy use to say
be careful who you be around
I should have listen to daddy
because now there's no one around
not a soul not a sound
no one to call on no one to lean on but god

Daddy use to say
I love you
I should have told him
Because now i can no longer hold him
daddy's gone
and all I have left is what
daddy use to say
Daddy i love you


P.S
Dedicated to anyone whom has lost a daddy I thank the lord my daddy is still here to tell him I love him don't wait until its to late to tell your daddy you love him
