I decided to upload this song because imo this is one of the best songs no one has ever heard. Zac Hacker wrote this song about his father’s alcohol addiction and what it was like growing up with an alcoholic father. Hope you like this song as much as I do lyrics below: Daddy had a weakness he kept on the shelf every time he’d touched it he turned into someone else and he tried to teach me wrong from right with the backside of his hand if it wasn’t for the whiskey daddy would’ve been a good man he missed seeing me grow up he missed all my baseball games he missed out on having a son who was pruod to have his name i used to hate him with all my heart but now i understand if it wasn’t for the whiskey daddy would’ve been a good man Chorus: he had a good woman she knew how to sacrifice she prayed every morning for god to change his life and if he would’ve been on momma’s side he might have had a chance if it wasn’t for the whiskey daddy would’ve been a good man he always said he loved me but he’d never give it up i know in his heart he wanted to but to want to is never enough so while the whiskey played the music the devil got the dance if it wasn’t for the whiskey daddy would’ve been a good man chorus damn that whiskey daddy would’ve been a good man
you sound just as good recorded as you do in person thanks kiddo, tom and mag

This mas is amazing. I seen him on Nashville Star but somebody needs to sign him. What a shame such a beautiful voice and talented artist such as Zack isnt on the top 10 greatest hits..
ive loved this song since he sang it to his dad on the show .. omg i was in tears.. love this song
The BEST!! Why this hasn’t hit the top of the charts amazing me. This is a perfect country song! Thank so much for posting!
This is the most AWESOME song….gives u chills (and tears)!!! :’)
Thank you for uploading this tune in it’s entirety… I have searched for this since the first time I heard Zac play it on Nashville Star. Zac’s father was on one of those shows- it was obvious the family is strong & has went through the recovering steps.
Again thank you for giving back by sharing this. We all heal in God’s time- acceptance and a lot of forgiveness.
Reminds me of a dark time in my life but some times we need those memories thank you.
i heard another shoals boy in the woods one night that would surpass this dude go Jay Hovater…..jarnold
The first time i ever heard this, it brought me to tears! Thanks you for posting this!
