When Daddy Looses His Little Girl

~More precious in that of this world

is that of Daddy’s little girl~

~From day she’s born ‘til he dies

is of her Daddy’s reason why~

~From that his soul he lives for her

within his heart his love bestir~

~No wrong on earth can she do of

for she is Daddy’s special love~

~When she needs her Daddy’s there

no matter time or anywhere~

~For she is Daddy’s little girl

more precious in that of this world~

~Then one day it comes to past

the Bond is broken doesn’t last~

~Within his heart so he cries

within is soul so he dies~

~He hopes he prays that one day

she finds the errors of her ways~

~No more she cares no more her heart

from that her Daddy she does part~

~He’s lost the love his little girl

more precious in that of this world~

~He reminisce of younger years

of times she came to him in tears~

~Of these the words she asked him why

as he wiped the tears from each her eye~

~That part of him his little girl

no longer part of that his world~

~His love for her will never die

within his heart will always cry~

~When Daddy looses his little girl

Daddy looses his whole world

My Daughter

 

November eighteenth of seventy-seven,

born to me a baby from heaven!

I gave her the name of Rachael,

taken from that of the Holy Bible!

In the Army I traveled the world,

always taking along my little girl!

When she was of the age of three,

the Army sent me to the Turkey!

Two years later when she was five,

I was stationed in Fort Riley!

I raised her the very best that I could,

but she tended to run the neighborhood!

Rachael was bit of a of a wild little girl,

but I loved her more than all the world!

I bought for her a pink “Big Wheels” bike,

one day she took it and gave me a fright!

She road it across the Base,

Found her with tears running down her face!

Over the years as she grew older,

that little girl became much bolder! 

Some years later I divorced her Step-mom,

and we moved to another town!

She gave me such a hard time,

that she drove me out of my mind!

But she was my child and I loved he so,

more than anyone in this world could know!

When she was sixteen she ran off with a boy,

and left behind all her little girl toys!

Thing happen to all in this big world,

for me I had lost my little girl!

Now my little girl’s at the age of thirty-three,

and has children of her own numbering three!

I never gave up on my baby from Heaven,

born November eighteenth of seventy-seven!

I love her as much now as I did then,

that special day way back when!
