my baby girl
Singer:john martyn
she's the sweetest in the whole wide world
she wears her hair way up in a curl
just to show she's my very own baby girl
she says: daddy will you sing for me
daddy try to swing for me
daddy play your strings for me
she says: daddy don't you cry for me
daddy will you fly for me
daddy will you try for me
she makes my heart feel tight like a fist
a number one girl in most every way
when she pulls my strings
you've got to give her her say
she says: daddy will you sing for me
daddy try to swing for me
daddy play your strings for me
she says: daddy don't you cry for me
daddy will you fly for me
she makes me feel like a cat with her cream
she shines and bubbles like the clearest of streams
she makes me know it's not as bad as it sometimes seems
she says: daddy will you sing for me
daddy try to swing for me
daddy play your strings for me
she says: daddy don't you cry for me
daddy will you fly for me
