Daddy-O, I'm gonna teach you some rules
From now on, that's all you'll be able to use
Do you hear me Daddy-O, I'm gonna teach you some rules
However you wanted it, I sang your song
Wherever you wanted me, I tagged along
But the lipstick on your shirt isn't mine
So I'm gettin' off, it's the end of the line
Do you hear me Daddy-O, I'm gonna teach you some rules
Mommy-O, How can you say that to me?
Don't you know Mommy-O
This sweet is sweet as a sweet man could be
Do you hear me Mommy-O, how can you say that to me?
You wanted a diamond ring, a Cadillac
You got them but Mommy-O, I want them back
If I have to take a brush off from you
Then I'm gonna take my woe .... too
Do you hear me Mommy-O, I'm gonna teach you some blues
You told me that a woman was your religion
But I didn't hear you mention that you meant them all
Or you can just consider, you're a daddy pigeon
'Cause I got to be only building in the snow
A lot of fish are waiting around and want a nibble
And you baby's got a line that they can overlord
So Daddy-O I'm hardly in the mood to quibble
And you make me very happy, if you hit the road
You gave me the runaround, and that was wrong
You wanted to run around, but run along
If we never meet again it's too soon
And I'll make a bet, you'll be changing your tune
Do you hear me Daddy-O, I'm gonna teach you some blues
