| Daddy I told you I was gonna fly
|
| I’d get out of that town alive
|
| Don’t worry, I kept your name and your picture in a frame
|
| Just like you, I got a lot in my heart
|
| It won’t let me fall apart
|
| I’ll always be your little girl
|
| I love you more than this whole world
|
| And daddy I told you
|
| Remember how you made me sing them hymns on the back porch?
|
| Daddy, don’t you know I’m carrying your spirit like a torch?
|
| Daddy I told you I was gonna fly
|
| I’d get out of that town alive
|
| Don’t worry, I kept your name and your picture in a frame
|
| Just like you, I got a lot in my heart
|
| It won’t let me fall apart
|
| I’ll always be your little girl
|
| I love you more than this whole world
|
| And daddy I told you
|
| Brothers having babies, Mama’s getting strong
|
| Things are changng
|
| Daddy I thank you, knew it all along
|
| I keep chasing down a dream
|
| It’s bigger than you and me
|
| Daddy I told you I was gonna fly
|
| I’d get out of that town alive
|
| Don’t worry, I kept your name and your picture in a frame
|
| Just like you, I got a lot in my heart
|
| It won’t let me fall apart
|
| I’ll always be your little girl
|
| I love you more than this whole world
|
| And daddy I told you |
