Lyrics & Music: Tom Pettersen
Elisabeth:
Daddy's been abroad
such a long, long time.
Hanne:
But somewhere down the road
the churchbells start to chime.
Both:
Well, I've got the news today,
daddy's comin' home to stay.
Chorus;
Daddy's comin' home,
no more business on the phone.
He kept dealin' with his people much too long.
Daddy's comin' back,
no more business at his track.
So long, Sicily, Arrivederci, Rome,
daddy's comin' home.
Elisabeth:
Surrounded by gorillas,
more than six feet tall.
Hanne:
Smokin' cigarillos,
fancy suits and all.
Both:
This'll be their final play
'cause daddy's comin' home to stay.
Chorus;
Daddy's comin' home,
no more business on the phone.
He kept dealin' with his people much too long.
Daddy's comin' back,
no more business at his track.
So long, Sicily, Arrivederci, Rome,
daddy's comin' home.
Gonna buy some new black shoes
'cause today I got the news...
Chorus;
Daddy's comin' home,
no more business on the phone.
He kept dealin' with his people much too long.
Daddy's comin' back,
no more business at his track.
So long, Sicily, Arrivederci, Rome,
daddy's comin' home.
Chorus;
Daddy's comin' home,
no more business on the phone.
He kept dealin' with his people much too long.
Daddy's comin' back,
no more business at his track.
So long, Sicily, Arrivederci, Rome,
daddy's comin' home.
