Daddy


Walk a little slower Daddy,

Said a child so small and tiny.

Im following in your footsteps,

And I dont want to fall.

 

Sometimes your steps are fast,

Sometimes they are hard to see.

So walk a little slower Daddy,

For you are leading me.

 

And someday when Im all grown up,

Your what I want to be.

Then I will have a little child,

Who will want to follow me.

 

And I would want to lead just right,

And know that I was true.

So walk a little slower Daddy,

For I must follow you.
