Daddy

Daddy i feel that i must talk to you are you
Sure this is what you want to do
No it's not for us kids that i beg you to stay
Please don't just walk out on mama this way
She's mothered your children she's spent her whole life
Trying to be a good mother and wife
And she's stood by you when the rest let you down
Daddy how can you walk out on her now
I'm your oldest daughter my age twenty-three
Your new love is even younger than me

She's young and she's pretty her hands soft as dew
While mama's are withered from working for you
Mom's not young anymore like your new love
But your new love won't love you like my mama does
You've taken her best years so don't leave her now
Please daddy say that you won't let her down
I'm your oldest daughter...
Daddy please say that you won't let her down
