Daddy Never Had A Chance In Hell Lyrics - James Bonamy

Daddy was a drinkin' man, he never took to preachin' 

Said he found heaven in a drink 

Well momma was a Bible totin', God fearin' Christian 

Would tell the devil to his fate exactly what she thinks 

 

As far as daddy knew momma couldn't drive 

So every Sunday mornin' he'd give us a ride 

Well, he'd wait out in the car, drinkin' Jim Beam from a sack 

But as the summer days grew hotter he found a pew in the back 

 

Daddy never had a chance in hell 

Somethin' that my momma knew so well 

While everybody else gave up 

Momma wore him down with love 

Daddy never had a chance in hell 

 

Well, Summer came and went but he stayed in the back row 

Blamin' it on the cold North wind outside 

Well I guess that explained the flannel shirt and jack 

But he had no explanation when momma asked about his tie 

 

He'd move up a little closer with every passing year 

He said it was because he simply couldn't hear 

I never thought that Dad would ever draw a sober breath 

Much less lead us all in prayer when we laid mom to rest 

 

Daddy never had a chance in hell 

Somethin' that my momma knew so well 

While everybody else gave up 

Momma wore him down with love 

Daddy never had a chance in hell 

 

While everybody else gave up 

Momma wore him down with love 

Daddy never had a chance in hell
