Daddy

Reba McEntire

(Reba McEntire)



My daddy is a rancher

He's wrangled cattle dang near all his life

He also liked to rodeo

He traveled around with four kids and a wife



Well his old ranch is rocky

But his ropes sail smooth for several years

He worked real hard

And roped real good

And tried to get his ranch out in the clear



He didn't want us kids to rodeo

He wanted more out of life for us

Maybe banking, or a lawyer

Or maybe even driving some old bus



Well that's when we took up singing

And his pride grew greater day by day

And I know his eyes grew misty

The night I sang up on the Opry stage



Chorus:

Now his ranch is so much bigger

The the days when he first started

The grass grows now where none used to be

His roping got him started

Cattle prices made it better

And he's trying to get his ranch out in the clear



Five years ago September, he bought more steers and hung up all his

ropes

But he often tells the stories about the rodeos he won and cowboy jokes

Well it's funny that the first big roping that he won some thirty years

ago

Was the same day that I sang on the stage of the Grand Old Opry show



Repeat Chorus



Now he's feeding cattle

Toting hay

And branding the Y.O.

And his hired hand's there to help him

And she also cooks their meals when they get home

They built their ranch together

And listening to the kids sing through the years



Well they worked real hard and roped real good and now they got their

ranch

out in the clear

Because when a family works together

They finally get their ranch out in the clear

Out in the clear
