Daddy's Pocket Knife Lyrics by Colby T. Helms
Colby T. Helms Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One day I opened up an old and dusty drawer
A little rusty piece of steel fell out on the floor
As I went to pick it up, my memory came back strong
It was daddy's pocket knife that he carried for so long
[Chorus]
As I held that rusty piece of steel there in my hand
My thoughts wandered back to that hard working man
An old piece of steel and worn-out cattle bone
Daddy's pocket knife has finally made it home
[Verse 2]
He probably bought it years ago and at the Angle hardware store
Come home from work every day his fingers cracked and sore
Come here my son, and sit up on my knee
Let me tell you a little tale about the way things used to be
[Chorus]
As I held that rusty piece of steel there in my hand
My thoughts wandered back to that hard working man
An old piece of steel and worn-out cattle bone
Daddy's pocket knife has finally made it home
[Verse 3]
A tear fell from my eye on that dreadful day
I held that blade in my hand, no words were left to say
His time on Earth was near, he placed it in that drawer
Knowing one day his son would find it and carry it once more
Chorus]
As I held that rusty piece of steel there in my hand
My thoughts wandered back to that hard working man
An old piece of steel and worn-out cattle bone
Daddy's pocket knife has finally made it home
