"Walkin' Daddy" lyrics - IRIS DEMENT

I'm walkin' daddy, in the steps that you put down
I'm walkin' daddy, in the steps that you put down
I'm walkin' daddy, and I know now where I'm bound

I'm walkin' daddy, and this road is dark and long
I'm walkin' daddy, and this road is dark and long
I'm walkin' daddy, and your blood is in me strong

I'm walkin' daddy, where the Jack's Fork river bends
Down in Missoura, where the Jack's Fork river bends
With you and mom and sister and all of our dear friends

Ain't no road a good road, till it's free to everyone
Ain't no road a good road, till it's free to everyone
I'm walkin' daddy, Father, Holy Ghost and Son

Ain't no sorrow can dim the love come shinin' through
Ain't no sorrow can dim the love come shinin' through
I'm walkin' daddy, and I know what I'm here to do

To be of use and try to help the deal along
To be of use and try to help the deal along
I'm walkin' daddy and I'm just gonna keep walkin' on
