I sang about Mama, but I guess I forgot Daddy So Dad, this is for you Who's the one who used to tickle your toes And wrinkle his nose Who taught you how a choo-choo goes Daddy Oh Daddy And who's the one who'd wake in darkest night To see if you were alright His baby sleeping tight Daddy Daddy Who's the one who worked so hard all day But when his job was through He'd come home and play with you Daddy Daddy And who's the one who let you put some lipstick on And wear your hair down long When Mom was gone
Daddy Daddy It was Daddy My Daddy Daddy Oh Daddy And who's the one that would wait up late Waiting on his baby girl to tell him all about her date Daddy Daddy And who's the one who saw your tears were real And said no matter how you feel A love wound will heal Daddy Daddy And who's the one who's cared your whole life through Now there's someone who has taken you And who's the one on your wedding day Who has to smile and say I do I give my girl away Daddy My Daddy
