Letra
He used to come home in the wee wee hours Brought us barbecue in the middle of the night Told us bedtime boogeyman stories Said "Good night Don't let the bedbugs bite" He felt he had a moral obligation To treat everybody fair No matter what race or color or creed you were if you needed him He was always there He didn't have a formal education 'Cause he felt there wasn't a need But he was sharper than any Harvard professor That had a PhD All odds were against him that he wouldn't make it But he proved everybody wrong 'Cause he made this record called "Mr. Lucky" And it said "Bad luck can't do me no harm" That's why we called him Do Daddy 'Cause he did everything that he said he would do His word was his bond, it was always true His words stuck like glue His favorite pastime was watching baseball On his big screen color TV With a plate of cornbread, collard greens and ox tails And some black eyed peas Kicked back on his couch in his three-piece suit Sunglasses and a [?] hat And if the phone rang and the game wasn't over he said "Tell 'em I'll call 'em right back" That's why we called him Do Daddy 'Cause he did everything that he said that he would do His word was his bond, it was always true His words stuck like glue He touched people all over the world with his music Told beginners, "stick to it" Lifetime achievements, Hollywood walk of fame He was always ahead of his game Sometime hungry, often lonely Enterin' the backdoors that said "colored only" Determination to succeed for that... We called him Do Daddy 'Cause he did everything that he said he would do His word was his bond, it was always true His word stuck like glue I miss you, Do Daddy...
