My Baby Girl

My baby girl;
She's the sweetest in the whole wide world.
She wears her hair way up in a curl,
Just to show she's my very own baby girl.

She says: Daddy will you sing for me,
Daddy try to swing for me,
Daddy play your strings for me.
She says: Daddy don't you cry for me,
Daddy will you fly for me,
Daddy will you try for me.

My little Miss Wisp;
She makes my heart feel tight like a fist.
A number one girl in most every way,
When she pulls my strings, you've got to give her her say.

She says: Daddy will you sing for me,
Daddy try to swing for me,
Daddy play your strings for me.
She says: Daddy don't you cry for me,
Daddy will you fly for me,
Daddy go and try for me.

My tiny dream;
She makes me feel like a cat with her cream.
She shines and bubbles like the clearest of streams,
She makes me know it's not as bad as it sometimes seems.

She says: Daddy will you sing for me,
Daddy try to swing for me,
Daddy play your strings for me.
She says: Daddy don't you cry for me,
Daddy will you fly for me,
Daddy go and try for me.

My baby girl,
She's just my baby girl.
