ronee blakley – my idaho home lyrics
mama and daddy raised me with love and care
they sacrificed, so i could have a better share
they fed me and nursed me and sent me to school
mama taught me how to sing, daddy lived the golden rule
when i think of the children alone and afraid
abandoned and wild like a fatherless child
i think of my mama and how she could sing
harmony with my daddy, our laughter would ring
down the highways, on the beaches
just as far as memory reaches
i still hear daddy singin’ his old army songs
we’d laugh and count horses as we drove along
we were young then, we were together
we could bear floods and fire and bad weather
and now that i’m older, grown up on my own
i still love mama and daddy best, my idaho home
mama grew up on the prairies of kansas
she was tender and sweet
the dust and tornadoes blew round her
but they left her straight up on her feet
my daddy grew up on his own, more or less
his mama died when he was just eleven
he had seven sisters to raise him
but he dreamed of his mama in heaven
his daddy drank whiskey and had a sharp eye
he sold chicken medicine farmers would buy
together they hunted the fields and the farms
when his daddy died, my daddy rested in my mama’s arms
down the highways, on the beaches
just as far as memory reaches
i still hear daddy singin’ his old army songs
we’d laugh and count horses as we drove along
we were young then, we were together
we could bear floods and fire and bad weather
and now that i’m older, grown up on my own
i still love mama and daddy best, my idaho home
