lyrics

All her life has been a whirlwind
Daddy’s been her lover and her best friend
I’m her only son and she’s the most fun when she’s here with me
She wears polka dots and cowboy hats
Clicks her heels and talks real fast
Says silly things and eats tofu chicken wings

She’s gettin’ on the train to the moon, Daddy
Hope we’ll see her soon, Daddy
But she’s gone one way on this sunny Tuesday mornin’
We stand and wave her goodbye
Waiting for that train to fly
But it’s on its way
Come play with me, Daddy

As we eat organic turkey franks
She says always give praise and thanks
To the mighty mountains, the little bitty ants
The oceans and the trees
Love your neighbors, love your daddy
Be nice to Aunt Nell and never be bratty
And worship whatever god you please

She’s gettin’ on the train to the moon, Daddy
Hope we’ll see her soon, Daddy
But she’s gone one way on this sunny Tuesday mornin’
We stand and wave her goodbye
Waiting for that train to fly
But it’s on its way
Come play with me, Daddy

He’s my daddy
My loving daddy
Always there for me
Don’t leave me, Daddy
Stay with me, Daddy
Always be here with me

There came a day when she never came back
I’m a big boy now, realize my mom’s a little wack
And to this day, I don’t know what she do
Rock star, porn star, circus clown,
Bullfighter, comic stripper, who’d boogie down
Maybe an astronaut on that train to the moon
How cool!

She’s gettin’ on the train to the moon, Daddy
Hope we’ll see her soon, Daddy
But she’s gone one way on this sunny Tuesday mornin’
We stand and wave her goodbye
Waiting for that train to fly
But it’s on its way
Come play with me, Daddy
It’s on its way
Come play with me, Daddy
