When the sun goes down and it’s getting late you say it’s time for bed
She just takes her time acting like she never heard a word you said
Little baby wanna hold you tight she don’t ever wanna say good night
She’s a lover, she wanna be Daddy’s Girl

When the morning comes and it’s time to go start another day
She won’t let you leave and she does her best to try to make you stay
Pretty baby gonna start to cry she don’t ever wanna say good bye
She’s a lover, she wanna be Daddy’s Girl

She don’t ever wanna be without you
Never have to worry she won’t doubt you
Then she puts her head upon your shoulder
Says she’ll marry you when she gets older

When the time has come and she’s old enough to be on her own
She won’t understand why you’re feelin’ sad ’cause she’s leaving you
All alone little woman gonna make you cry you don’t ever wanna say
Goodbye, she’s a lady, she’ll always be Daddy’s Girl

Little woman gonna break your heart
Gonna miss her when you’re both apart
She’s a lady but she’ll always be Daddy’s Girl

She’ll always be Daddy’s Girl
She’ll always be Daddy’s Girl
She’ll always be Daddy’s Girl
She’ll always be Daddy’s Girl
She’ll always be Daddy’s Girl
She’ll always be Daddy’s Girl
