©2004 Diane Davis and Shayne Vaughan Verse 1 She watches baby Sammy sleeping Hoping he'll have the sweetest dreams Will he dream about his daddy Or what his absence means? Verse 2 His daddy left them all alone About this time last year Whenever Sammy isn't sleeping She's quick to hide her tears Chorus: And he's gone...Daddy's Gone Out On The Town (yes he's gone, yes he's gone, yes he's gone) And he's gone...you won't find him hanging 'round And while Mama climbs the walls You know Daddy never calls Verse 3 Seems she can never find a sitter Motherhood takes all her time But she don't mind it all that much 'Til Daddy hits her mind Verse 4 Grandma tells her he's a loser And that ain't too far from the truth While Mommy's chasing after Sammy He's chasing after youth (Repeat Chorus)
