Dedicated to Daddy and Merle Haggard




DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL

Your soothing voice took me back
To where I wish I was at
Hangin' with daddy
Just him and me

Your music took me back
To Sunday mornings on daddy's lap
Going out for coffee with the guys
And seeing me in his eyes

Chorus:
Whatever happened
To this daddy's little girl?
Who hadn't a care
For the great big world
I didn't care about any boys
Just neighborhood games,
Barbies and toys

Please say you will, Merle
Help me find daddy's little girl

As I watched you upon the stage
I was reminded of my age
While my voice was singing along
My heart cried "Where's daddy's girl gone?

(Repeat Chorus)

Please say you will, Merle
Help me find daddy's little girl
