Daddy Said

Mmm-mm mm-mm-mmm
Mmm-mm mm-mm-mmm

There’s a lot that a girl needs to know in this life
And so much that she’ll learn from her mama
But there are certain lessons that you’re gonna get from your dad
When he’s worried ‘bout the things that can harm ya
And he wants to arm ya
So I wanna share what my daddy said

Hey, little girl
If you don’t watch out
Some psycho’s gonna grab you
And take you out
And put you in the trees...
And that saved me

And daddy said
When you’re ridin’ in the car
If you open up the door
Well you’re gonna fly far
And break your legs and knees
And that saved me too!

Oh, oh, so
Girls, listen to your daddies
Boys, listen to ‘em too
Everyone should listen to their daddy
He really does want the best for you

Mmm-mm mm-mm-mmm
Mmm-mm mm-mm-mmm

There’s a lot that a man wants to do in this life
And so much that he wants to put his hand on
But something happens fundamental
When a kid comes along
He gets protective in a way he never planned on
Becomes what he stands on
And I wanna share what my daddy said

If anybody lays a finger on you
Guess I’m gonna go to jail ‘cause I’m gonna have to do
What it takes to keep you safe
And when that creep was at the door in the middle of the night
You put the pedal to the floor
And made it home from the store in record time
And we were fine

So girls, listen to your daddies
Boys, listen to ‘em too
Everyone should listen to their daddy
He really does want the best for you

Mmm-mm mm-mm-mmm
Mmm-mm mm-mm-mmm

Now I’m not just talking ‘bout a father
I’m talking ‘bout a dad
Don’t matter if he’s the one you’re born to
Long as he’s the one you had
Ohh...

And I want to say
I’m sorry if you never really had one
Or if you got a bad one
That isn’t fair
And if I could take
A little piece of mine and give it to you
That’s exactly what I would do
I would share

One of the smartest things
I ever heard,
“Father’s a noun, but Dad’s a verb”

Girls, listen to your daddies
Boys, listen to ‘em too
Everyone should listen to their daddy
He really does want the best for you

Mmm-mm mm-mm-mmm
Mmm-mm mm-mm-mmm
