Driving, anthemic, motivational. Steady kick and playful acoustic guitar opens with group 'hey' shouts, joined by warm female vocal, handclaps and slide electric guitar, moves from insistent to half time beat in heart-warming chorus, features middle 8 drop with determined guitar into uplifting final chorus and positive end. Lyrics about the importance of family; 110 bpm; (Dmaj)
Daddy had a dream
and that dream was never lost
every day he worked
out in the sun out in the frost
and he never worked a day for him
he did all of that for us
out on the land
out in the field
in the new town city bus
family ties
all the kids are running wild
a new baby cries
yeah daddy’s coming home
and he likes whiskey and ice
for those long summer nights
and I won’t forget who paid the price
to keep my family close tonight
momma had her pride
and she never let it go
stood for things that she believed
not afraid to let it show
and on summer days
when friends came round
she’d welcome every one
we’d light a fire and talk all night
until we could see the sun
family ties
all the kids are running wild
a new baby cries
yeah mummy’s coming home
good times were served by the slice
for those long summer nights
and I won’t forget who paid the price
to keep my family close tonight
