He drops his suitcase by the door
She knows her daddy wont be
back anymore
She drags her feet across the floor
Trying to hold back time
to keep him holding on
and she says:
Chorus:
Daddy daddy don't leave
I'll do anything to keep you
right here with me
can't you see how much I
need you
Daddy daddy don't leave
mommy's sayin things she don't mean
she don't know what she's talkin about
somebody hear me out
Father
Listen
Tell him that he's got a home
and he don't have to go
Father
save him
I will do anything in return
I'll clean my room
Try hard in school
I'll be good
I promise you
Father
Father
I pray to you
Now she hasn't slept in weeks
She don't wanna close her eyes
cuz she's scared he'll leave
they've tried just about anything
But it's getting harder now for
him to breathe
then she said
CHORUS
Please don't let him go
I'm begging you so
The look in his eyes
Need a little more time
To tell him that I love him more
Than anything in the world
It's Daddy's little girl
Father
Listen
Tell him that he's got a home
and he don't have to go
Father
save him
I will do anything in return
I'll clean my room
try hard in school
I'll be good
I promise you
Father
Father
I pray to you
She was daddy's little girl
