In a vine-covered shack in the mountain
Bravely fighting the battles of time
There is one who has weathered life's sorrows
It's that silver-haired daddy of mine

If I could recall all those heartaches
Dear old daddy, I've caused you to bear
If I could erase the lines on your face
And bring back the gold to your hair
If God would grant me the power
Just to turn back the pages of time
I'd give all I own if I could but atone
To that silver-haired daddy of mine
That silver-haired daddy of mine

If I could recall all those heartaches
Dear old daddy, I've caused you to bear
If I could erase the lines on your face
And bring back the gold to your hair
If God would grant me the power
Just to turn back the pages of time
I'd give all I own if I could but atone
To that silver-haired daddy of mine
