Jeff's Song Lyrics

What does a Daddy Do?"
(c) 2003 Lyrics by Jeff Dearman
Style of Music: Country

V1:

Picnics at the park.
Sleepovers after dark.
No matter what she ever did,
She's always owned my heart.

Coloring with Crayola Crayons,
building Castles in the Sand.
25 Cents at the neighborhood
lemonade Stand.
Parties in the pool, they were so grand.
I slowly take her hand,
as I drop her off at her first day of school.



Chorus:

Daddy's little girl,
I know one day you'll grow up,
but the memories will remain the same.
No matter where you end up, in this lifelong game.
No matter where you are, or how far you go.
You'll always be the most important person in my
world.
Oh what does a daddy do?
When she's no longer daddy's little girl?

V2:

Daddy's little girl is all grown up.
She's got her boyfriend John.
Next week she'll be going with him to their senior
prom.
Next will come college, her degree and a full time
job.
Without her in our home the days seem too long.
I'll walk up to her bedroom and most things will be
gone.
When I look out the window I can still hear you play
Even though most things may be gone, the memories
always remain.




Chorus:

Daddy's little girl.
I know one day you'll grow up,
but the memories will remain the same .
No matter where you end up, in this lifelong game.
No matter where you are, or how far you go.
You'll always be the most important person in my busy
world.
Oh what does a daddy do? > When she's no longer daddy
> s little girl?

V3

Daddy's Little Girl is grown up now.
She's married with three kids of her own.
She drives back to their townhouse, in her Mercedes
Benz.
living together in a happy home.
I am so happy for her.
She's everything I wanted her to be.
All I have left now are those beautiful memories.

Bridge:

Yeah, I gave you life. Brought you into this world.
No matter how old you get to me you'll always be my
little girl.
Whenever I look out the window I can still hear you
play.
Even though most things may be gone, the memories
always remain.



Chorus:

Daddy's little girl.
I know one day you'll grow up,
but the memories will remain the same.
No matter where you end up, in this lifelong game.
No matter where you are, or how far you go.
You'll always be the most important person in my busy
world.
Oh what does a daddy do?
When she's no longer daddy's little girl?

Oh What does a daddy do?
When she's no longer daddy's little girl
