Daddy's Little Girl

There she sits all alone With her teddy bears Long blond hair with golden curls Quietly playing not a care I wonder what she's thinking Fairy tales or nursery rhymes Playing quietly in her world She's daddy's little girl Will she be a debutant Or another Jonas Salk Will she play the Broadway scene Or an actress on the screen I thank God everyday For this love he sent my way And I thank him every night That this little girl is mine Sometimes we disagree When things don't always go her way In those eyes I see the anger That says daddy stay away I tell her I 'm sorry I wouldn't hurt you for the world Then she whispers don't worry I 'm still your little girl Now it's time to go to bed My little sleepy head And dream about your friends With your teddy bear Fred Close your eyes and drift away Tomorrow's another day Dreaming in your little world Your daddy's little girl Dreaming in your little world You'll always be my girl
