Daddy's Girl

I recall the night that you came into this world
 I couldn't believe the doctor when he said it's a little girl
 I said: "Now, Doc, you must be wrong
 You see, I want a boy"
 Then he laid you in my arms
 And my heart sang with joy
 (Daddy's girl, daddy's girl)
 (I'm the centre of Daddy's world)
 (I know I'm Daddy's number one)
 (For he loves me like I was his son)
 (Daddy's girl)
 I recall the time I took you to a baseball game
 You brought along your baby doll and half its baby things
 We sat there playin' house, while the Dodgers played the Braves
 And everyone in the bleachers looked at us, as if to say
 (Daddy's girl, daddy's girl)
 (I'm the centre of Daddy's world)
 (I know I'm Daddy's number one)
 (For he loves me like I was his son)
 (Daddy's girl)
 I recall the day I took you on a fishin' trip
 You said, "Daddy, won't that hook hurt the fish's lip?"
 And you said if they don't get air
 Those things in the can will die
 So we turned the worms a-loose and chased some butterflies
 (Daddy's girl, daddy's girl)
 (I'm the centre of Daddy's world)
 (I know I'm Daddy's number one)
 (For he loves me like I was his son)
 (Daddy's girl)
 I recall the day that your young man come to call
 It seems like only yesterday, we swam and played football
 But I know the time has come
 That I must set you free
 But no matter where you are
 You know what you are to me
 (Daddy's girl, daddy's girl)
 (I'm the centre of Daddy's world)
 (I know I'm Daddy's number one)
 (For he loves me like I was his son)
 (Daddy's girl)
 (Daddy's girl, daddy's girl)
 (I'm the centre)
