I'm sending this letter 
I'll mail it today 
There's so many things I've been wanting to say 
Your mom sent some pictures 
And my how you've grown 
Rock n roll fathers are never at home  
 
I'm writing this letter 
I made you a song 
I promised your mom that I'd write while I'm gone 
You say daddy come home 
Well you'll just have to wait 
I hope when I get there that it won't be too late 
 
Skylar I just missed your first step today 
I have no excuses and nothing to say 
I live on a bus with a rock n roll band 
I hope when your older that you'll understand 
 
I'm coming home soon 
This tour's almost through 
I promise I'll try to spend more time with you 
You say daddy come home 
You'll just have to wait 
I hope when I get there that it won't be too late 
 
Now Madison Blue you know I love you too 
Not a single day passes that I don't think of you 
I'm running on empty and a mountain so high 
I can pull out your pictures and look in your eyes 
 
I long for the day when your old man comes home 
It kills me to hear you say daddy don't go 
You say daddy come home 
You'll just have to wait 
I hope when I get there that it won't be too late 
 
Daddy's at work now he's trying to pay bills 
Ego's and assholes are part of my deal 
I make some money and I have some fun 
The tax man he cometh and I'm back to square one 
 
Don't worry bout your daddy 
You girls be good 
Give a kiss to your mother 
I sure wish I could 
This life has it's moments 
I'm not always sad 
Take care and I love you 
Your rock n roll dad
