Charlie Rich - Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast lyrics

The love between the two of us was dying And it got so bad, I knew I had to leave But halfway down the highway when I turned around and saw My little girl a running after me [Chorus] Crying, daddy, don't you walk so fast Daddy, don't you walk so fast Daddy, slow me down, some 'cause you're making me run Daddy, don't you walk so fast It broke my heart to tell my little baby That her daddy had to run and catch a train She had no way of knowing I was leaving home for good I turned around and there she was again [Chorus] Only for the sake of my sweet daughter I just had to turn back home, right there and then I try to start a new life with the mother of my child I couldn't bear to hear those words again She said, daddy, don't you walk so fast Daddy, don't you walk so fast Daddy, slow me down, some 'cause you're making me run Daddy, don't you walk so fast
