Lyrics

I saw that old juke box
In daddy’s house today
I haven’t been back there
Since daddy passed away
Down in the basement
All covered with dust
There sat the old songs
That daddy dearly loved

For a nickel you could hear ‘em all
Lefty missing Saginaw
Sonny and a Snow White Dove
Patsy and her Faded Love
I played them for my Dad
It took every coin I had
To hear them once again
On the jukebox that Daddy loved

He bought it in the city –
From a diner closin’ down
The day he brought it home
All us kids gathered ‘round
He dropped a nickel in the slot
Punched some keys to make it play
And we heard George Jones sing
He Stopped Lovin’ Her Today

For a nickel you could hear ‘em all
Lefty missing Saginaw
Sonny and a Snow White Dove
Patsy and her Faded Love
I played them for my Dad
It took every coin I had
To hear them once again
On the jukebox that Daddy loved
