1
Every night I'd lay down to bed
2
And see my Daddy up ahead
3
A little light coming down the road
4
I knew the lantern was guiding him home
5
A steel rail worker, my Father stood tall
6
In St. Maurice Valley after the 1st World War
7
And every morning when he'd kiss Ma goodbye
8
I never thought that dear Daddy would die
9
Down the road, down the road
10
See the lantern moving slow
11
Down the road, down the road
12
Daddy's coming home
13
Mother was crying in her sleep
14
She had a secret she could not keep
15
"Son, your Father can never come back
16
He went and died out there on the tracks"
17
I ran down the hall and looked outside
18
Into the cold of life's darkest night
19
Here in my prison, alone with despair
20
I hated Daddy for leaving me here
21
Then my walls lit up like flames
22
My window flew open and I heard my name
23
And Daddy shone as bright as he could
24
I knew the lantern had brought him home for good
25
Down the road, down the road
26
See the lantern moving slow
27
Down the road, down the road
28
Daddy's coming home
29
Down the road, down the road
30
See the lantern burning low
31
Down the road
32
Now I know
33
Daddy's coming home
