- Songwriters: Billy Dean, Steve Dean
Daddy's will was stronger than the winds of a hurricane
Steady as a stone wall, never did hear him complain
There were times when we had nothing but the hope in his eyes
His spirit went unbroken and his faith was never tried
Daddy's will held us together
Determined he would make a better life for us all
He sacrificed unselfishly so our dreams could be fulfilled
But then again, Daddy's will
Got a sister on the west coast, another who lives back east
I moved up to Nashville where I'm livin' out my dreams
But we all stay in touch these days talkin' on the line
'Bout how hard it is raising kids and were reminded of those times
But Daddy's will held us together
Determined he would make a better life for us all
He sacrificed unselfishly so our dreams could be fulfilled
But then again, Daddy's will
I won't forget the summer Daddy passed away
Mama opened up the safe and read the will he made
It said, our family fortune lies within our hearts
Then our eyes filled with tears but no one fell apart
'Cause Daddy's will held us together
Determined he would make a better life for us all
He sacrificed unselfishly so our dreams could be fulfilled
But then again, Daddy's will
Until the end, you know Daddy's will
In the Know
