LLETRA EN ANGLÈS
He wore a big diamond ring drove a black Cadillac
He never had to work for the close on his back and she loved him so
She prayed someday he'd settle down
so when the offer of a wedding ring came around she couldn't say no
After eight long months of carrying his child
the man grew so crazy and wild and he left her
Now the little boy is six years old,
she thinks it's time that he was told the truth
Chorus:
Son your daddy don't live in Heaven, he's in Houston
I think it's time you finally learn the truth
Your daddy don't live in Heaven, he's in Houston
And he stands as far from Heaven as it can be
When he was a baby he needed a dad
she just couldn't tell him how the man went bad so she lied
She told him how his daddy passed away
he lived in Heaven where he'd stay forever
Now she loooks into his eyes as he's growing older
He's just a chap of his daddy shoulder and she loves him so
Oh you know that story that your mamma told you
how your dady couldn't hold you isn't true
Chorus twice
TRADUCCIÓ APROXIMADA AL CATALÀ (Per Countrycat)
Duia un anell de diamant ben gros i conduia un Cadillac negr
Mai havia hagut de treballar per culpa del close de la seva esquena, i ella l'estimava tant
Ella pregava que algun dia ell posés seny
Així que quan li va proposar per casar-se ella no va poder negar-s'hi
Després de vuit llargs mesos de dur el seu fill al ventre
l'home va tornar-se boig, lliure i la va deixar
Ara el noiet té sis anys
ella pensa que ja és hora que sàpiga la veritat
Tornada:
Fill el teu pare no viu al Cel, és a Houston
Crec que és hora que sàpigues finalment la veritat
El teu pare no viu al Cel, és a Houston
I ell s'està tant lluny del Cel com pot
Quan ell era un vailet necessitava un pare
ella no podia dir-li que l'home s'havia trastocat, per tant va mentir-li
Li va explicar que el seu pare havia mort
que viuria al Cel per sempre més
Ara ella se'l mira als ulls mentre es fa gran
És tot un homenet i ella se l'estima molt
Saps la història que la teva mare et va explicar
com ton pare no et va poder abraçar, no era veritat
Tornada (dues vegades)
