Your Daddy Loves You (For Gia Louise)
I'd like to do a love song
For all the little ladies, for all the daddies
Now sweet little ol' brown eyed girl
Now that you're sleepin'
I've got a confession to make
Of secrets that I've been keepin'
Me and your mama had some problems
A whole lotta things on our minds, yeah
But lately when we look at you we know that we've been wastin' time
Nearly all the time, and
Your daddy loves you
Said your daddy loves his girl, hey now
Your daddy loves you, loves you
Said your daddy loves his girl
Now sweet little ol' chocolate girl
Now that you're sleepin' I feel braver
I've got a confession to make
I'll sneak it in while you're dreamin', dreamin', dream on
Me and your mama had some troubles
A whole lotta things on our minds, yeah
But every time we look at you, we know that we've been wastin' time
Near all the time, and
Your daddy loves you
Your daddy loves his girl, hey, now
Said your daddy loves you, loves you, loves you
Said your daddy loves his girl
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 keep me thinkin'
The sweet thing about tomorrow
She keep me, keep me, keep me, keep me
Keep me, keep me holdin' on
Sweet thing, tomorrow
Remember I love you
Please remember that I love you
Said your daddy loves you, loves you
For all the little ladies, for all the daddies
Now sweet little ol' brown eyed girl
Now that you're sleepin'
I've got a confession to make
Of secrets that I've been keepin'
Me and your mama had some problems
A whole lotta things on our minds, yeah
But lately when we look at you we know that we've been wastin' time
Nearly all the time, and
Your daddy loves you
Said your daddy loves his girl, hey now
Your daddy loves you, loves you
Said your daddy loves his girl
Now sweet little ol' chocolate girl
Now that you're sleepin' I feel braver
I've got a confession to make
I'll sneak it in while you're dreamin', dreamin', dream on
Me and your mama had some troubles
A whole lotta things on our minds, yeah
But every time we look at you, we know that we've been wastin' time
Near all the time, and
Your daddy loves you
Your daddy loves his girl, hey, now
Said your daddy loves you, loves you, loves you
Said your daddy loves his girl
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 keep me thinkin'
The sweet thing about tomorrow
She keep me, keep me, keep me, keep me
Keep me, keep me holdin' on
Sweet thing, tomorrow
Remember I love you
Please remember that I love you
Said your daddy loves you, loves you
