that daddys girl   put first her family   she has good grades, mom braids her hair   that daddys girl   became an adult   with adolescent smiles   handled with care      it’s been a while   since i’ve seen her at all   i miss her, but i can’t ask her why   i was with her   soon to fall off the saddle   in the pasture   love passed her by      and i keep, keep dreamin’ (3x)      i’m not book smart   but i know enough   that never looked hard, to fall in her love   now she’s grown up   oh what a woman   she’s shown up   caught me off guard      and i keep, keep dreamin’ (3x)      i was ready   the second i saw her   she was friendly   like her father, he said   with a helmet   and her first rollerblades   she couldn’t help it   she outgrew the space      and i keep, keep dreamin’ (3x)
