joy of cooking - too late, but not forgotten lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
low tide, river gone down
got no car to drive into town
and the dry wind blows through the cracks in the walls
and out in the trees a forgotten bird calls

[verse 2]
moonlight, a silhouette
something that i never did get
and i remember you daddy when you stood in the door
crazy with whiskey and asking for one more
[chorus 1]
too late but not forgotten
and the corn keeps growing in the sunshine
time runs and the baby keeps crying
and i can’t keep lying
daddy i miss you, yes i do

[verse 3]
frost comes, harvest gone
i wonder if i’ll have enough to carry me on
and the cold wind blows like a slap on the land
sometimes i wonder if our house is gonna stand

[verse 4]
daybreak, comes the first rain
neighbours come by to sit and complain
and i think of the nights when your feet got cold
and you told me that you hoped we would never grow old

[chorus 2]
too late but not forgotten
and my life keeps flowing down the river
time goes and the baby’s sleeping
and i can’t help weeping
daddy i’m hurting, yes i am
[verse 5]
tugboat on the river bend
it must be sam your riverboat friend
and i remember the night he called me a tramp
back when we were living in the trailer camp

[verse 6]
dreams go, but memories keep
today i’m wishing for a good night’s sleep
and the only thing that i ever did need
was a good man’s lovin’ and a baby to feed

[chorus 3]
too late but not forgotten
and the storms keep blowin’ up the river
time’s gone and the baby keeps growin’
and i can’t help knowin’
daddy i loved you, yes i did

[chorus 3]
too late but not forgotten
and the storms keep blowin’ up the river
time’s gone and the baby keeps growin’
and i can’t help knowin’
daddy i loved you
[verse 1]
low tide, river gone down
got no car to drive into town
and the dry wind blows through the cracks in the walls
and out in the trees a forgotten bird calls
