[Intro]
Like to do a love song for all the little ladies, for all the daddies.
[Verse 1]
Now sweet little old brown eyed girl
Now that you're sleeping
I've got a confession to make
Of secrets that I've been keeping
Me and your mama had some problems
A, a whole lot of things on our minds, yeah
But lately when we look at you
We know that we've been wasting time
Nearly all the time, and
[Chorus]
Your daddy loves you
Say your daddy loves his girl, hey now
Your daddy loves you, loves you
Say your daddy loves his girl
[Verse 2]
Now sweet little old chocolate girl
Well now that you're sleeping I feel braver
I've got a confession to make
Let me sneak it in while you're dreaming, dreaming, dream on
Me and your mama had some troubles
A, a whole lotta things on our minds, yeah
But every time we look at you
We know that we've been wasting time
Nearly all the time and
[Chorus]
Your daddy loves you
Say your daddy loves his girl, hey now
Say your daddy loves you, loves you, loves you
Say your daddy loves his girl
[Outro]
Loves his girl, loves his girl
Love you little chocolate girl
Do you love your little chocolate girl?
I love my little chocolate girl
I love her, I love my girl
'Cause she keeps me thinking
She thinks about tomorrow
She keeps me, keep me, keep me, keep me, keep me, keep me
Holding on
Sweet things tomorrow
Remember that I love you
Please remember that I love you
Say your daddy loves you, loves you
Yes, remember that I love you
