Hi.
I heard a country song at the weekend, one of which I haven't heard before. I only caught the last few lines of it.
The song ended with My daddy said googbye. It was a woman that was singing.
Hope you can helpand thanks in asvance.

Answer
Hi Richard!  I think the song you're looking for is "I Don't Want To Play House," by Tammy Wynette.  She released the song in 1967 and even won a Grammy for it.  Hope this helps!

"I Don't Want To Play House" - Tammy Wynette

Today, I sat alone, at the window
And I watched our little girl outside at play
With the little boy next door
Like so many times before
But somethin' didn't seem quite right today

So I went outside to see what they were doing
And then the teardrops made my eyes go dim
'Cause I heard him name a game
And I hung my head in shame
When I heard our little girl say to him

No I don't wanna play house
I know it can be fun
I've watched mummy and daddy
And if that's the way it's done
I don't wanna play house
It makes my mummy cry
'Cause when she played house
My daddy said goodbye

No I don't wanna play house
I know it can be fun
I've watched mummy and daddy
And if that's the way it's done
I don't wanna play house
It makes my mummy cry
'Cause when she played house
My daddy said goodbye
'Cause when she played house
My daddy said goodbye...
