I know I only see you now and then
But I just can't make your mama understand
That I really can't be happy being gone
And your weekend daddy loves her all week long.

I know you'd like for me to come back home
But your mama thinks she needs to be alone
And don't think I forget her when I'm gone
Your weekend daddy loves her all week long.

I don't mean to be a weekend daddy
And I know you're too young to understand
But if mama finds forgiveness for the things that I've done wrong
Then she'll love your weekend daddy all week long.

If mama finds forgiveness...
