Daddy fixed cars up late every night To keep food on the table for his kids and his wife A son of the depression, he had six grades of school He worked so hard to keep us in shoes Our little house was so crowded, but it was so full of love We never left home without a kiss and a hug And when times got the toughest we just prayed and made do And I wore the clothes my big brothers outgrew Daddy kissed us soon as he came home Momma read the Bible, till the sandman would come Everything was alright because they were right down the hall I guess we were the rich kids after all Well my little boy's drifting to sleep in my arms And I kiss his sweet head, so tender and warm And there's a picture of Jesus, I can't thank Him enough It's not what you have, but who do you love Daddy kissed us soon as he came home Momma read the Bible, till the sandman would come Everything was alright because they were right down the hall I guess we were the rich kids after all I guess that made us rich kids Looking back we were the rich kids After all
