:: Daddy don't know ::

I used to play the field
I used to like to run
I used to love 'em
And then leave 'em
After I had my fun

I used to drink and fight all night
I used to play the game
Then I met this little woman
And everything changed
But when I brought her to my Daddy
He said "No"

He said, "I'm this girl's Daddy
And your Momma don't know"

Verse II

Every girl was different
No two of them the same
But when I brought them to my
Daddy it was the same little game

It seemed like he had sired
Every other girl in town
And we used to wonder
Why he was always
"Working late" downtown

I met this little Japanese girl
But he said "No"
He told me "I'm this girl's Daddy
And your Momma don't know"
Verse III

I met this little girl
Her name was baby Jean
But when I brought her to my Daddy
It was the same old scene

My mother caught me crying
And of course she asked me why
I told her the whole story
She didn't even blink her eye

She put her hand up on my shoulder
And she said, "Go man, Go!"

"Because your Daddy ain't your Daddy
And your Daddy don't know"
