1.    A little boy was waiting for his Daddy one day,
It was time to meet him when he heard his Mommy say,
Come to Mommy, Darling, please don't you cry,
For your Daddy's gone to heaven way up in the sky.

Chorus:

How far is heaven, when can I go
to see my Daddy, he's there I know.
How far is heaven, let's go tonight.
I want my Daddy to hold me tight.

VERSE 2:

2.    He was called so suddenly and could not say goodbye
I know that he's in heaven. We'll meet him by and by.
The little boy just trembled, his tears he could not hide,
He looked up toward the heavens and then he replied,

CHORUS:
