Daddy Went Walkin' Lyrics
Neil Young
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds
right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now
Corduroy pants
and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin'
just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Old man crossin' the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossin' the road,
He's feelin' fine
Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him
'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now
Brown leather boots
and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood
with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Old man crossin' the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossin' the road,
He's feelin' fine
Mama's waiting
at the top of the hill,
They'll be laughing,
oh the stories they'll tell...
When he holds her
in his arms again,
They'll be sweethearts
with time on their hands
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds
right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now
Corduroy pants
and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin'
just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him
'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now
Brown leather boots
and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood
with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Pushing tall weeds
right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now
Corduroy pants
and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin'
just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Old man crossin' the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossin' the road,
He's feelin' fine
Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him
'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now
Brown leather boots
and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood
with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Old man crossin' the road,
You've got to let him go,
Old man crossin' the road,
He's feelin' fine
Mama's waiting
at the top of the hill,
They'll be laughing,
oh the stories they'll tell...
When he holds her
in his arms again,
They'll be sweethearts
with time on their hands
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Pushing tall weeds
right outta his way,
My old dad went a walkin' one day,
Hey now, hey now
Corduroy pants
and an old plaid shirt,
Daddy went a walkin'
just to feel the earth,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
Daddy went a ridin' in his old car,
Took the dog with him
'cause it ain't too far,
Daddy went ridin' in his old car,
Hey now, hey now
Brown leather boots
and an old straw hat,
Daddy's getting wood
with the barnyard cat,
Got a little dirty
but that's all right,
Hey now, hey now
