Daddy

Spoken:
I sang about Mama, but I guess I forgot Daddy
So Dad, this is for you
Who's the one who used to tickle your toes
And wrinkle his nose
Who taught you how a choo-choo goes
Daddy
Oh Daddy
And who's the one who'd wake in darkest night
To see if you were alright
His baby sleeping tight
Daddy
Daddy
Who's the one who worked so hard all day
But when his job was through
He'd come home and play with you
Daddy
Daddy
And who's the one who let you put some lipstick on
And wear your hair down long
When Mom was gone
Daddy
Daddy
It was Daddy
My Daddy
Daddy
Ohh Daddy
And who's the one that would wait up late
Waiting on his baby girl to tell him all about her date
Daddy
Daddy
And who's the one who saw your tears were real
And said no matter how you feel
A love wound will heal
Daddy
Daddy
And who's the one who's cared your whole life through
Now there's someone who has taken you
And who's the one on your wedding day
Who has to smile and say
I do I give my girl away
Daddy
My Daddy
