Oh daddy, like you always saying to do.

    C                                    F
And when you walk around the world, babe,
                      G                            C
You said you'd try to look for the end of the road,
                                                           F
You might find out later that the road will end in Detroit,
                                        G   C
Honey, the road will even end in Kathmandu.

                                F
You can go all around the world
                                         G           C
Trying to find something to do with your life, baby,
                                      F
When you only gotta do one thing well,
                                                    G           C
You only gotta do one thing well to make it in this world, babe.
                                      F
You got a woman waiting for you there,
                         G             C
All you ever gotta do is be a good man one time to one woman
                                         D
And that'll be the end of the road, babe,

I know you got more tears to share, babe,
   G
So come on, come on, come on, come on, come on,
             C    F    C    F    C    F
And cry, cry baby, cry baby, cry baby.
                C                           F
And if you ever feel a little lonely, dear,
              C                                 F
I want you to come on, come on to your mama now,
           C                            F
And if you ever want a little love of a woman
            C                             F
Come on and baby baby baby babe babe baby now
    C   F  C
Cry baby   yeah.
