The Daddy

I know that you don't understand The reason why he ask you where've you been So you dug into your room and tell him You were hanging out with some of your girlfriends But did you ever stop and think Maybe he just wants to know if you had a good time And if he asks you why do you wear Your blue jeans when they're old and torn Well, he don't know that blue jeans Do not have no soul until they are fainted and warm But don't take it all to hard 'cause he's just trying to be A part of your life, yes, he is And if he does not like to hear the music you are playing Well, maybe he don't understand the words we are saying But he is still the man who brought you into this world And he's got to live here too and a little respect A little respect will never hurt you, oh yeah And if he says your hair is more becoming When it does not hang so long Just tell him when the cold wind blow It covers up your ears and keeps you warm Uh, don't take it all to hard 'cause he is just trying to be A part of your life, yes, he is And if he does not like to hear the music you are playing Well, maybe he don't understand the words we are saying But he is still the man who brought you into this world And a little respect, a little respect will never hurt you Oh no, it won't And if he says your hair is more becoming When it does not hang so long Just tell him when the cold wind blow It covers up your ears and keeps you warm Oh don't take it all to hard 'Cause he is just trying to be a part of your life The man is trying, he may not know how But he's trying to be a part of your life, oh yeah
