Daddy's Eyes Songtext

Daddy's Eyes Songtext
The kids at school
All look at you
Wishin′ they were in your shoes
The clothes you wear
The style of your hair
Says your Daddy's paid his dues
You drive a big fine car
Got money to burn
And your house is on the right side of town
If they only knew
The dark side of you
Boy, you know they′d put you down
You've got your Daddy's eyes
Your Daddy′s smile
You try to play your Daddy′s game
But there's just one thing
You haven′t got
You haven't got your Daddy′s name
When I look at you
I see a man
I loved some years ago
He whispered sweet words
And smiled at me
And then he took my body and soul
Your Daddy's eyes
Keep staring at me
But he′s not the man I'm married to
Your Daddy loved me
And he left me
The only thing he gave me was you.
All look at you
Wishin′ they were in your shoes
The clothes you wear
The style of your hair
Says your Daddy's paid his dues
You drive a big fine car
Got money to burn
And your house is on the right side of town
If they only knew
The dark side of you
Boy, you know they′d put you down
You've got your Daddy's eyes
Your Daddy′s smile
You try to play your Daddy′s game
But there's just one thing
You haven′t got
You haven't got your Daddy′s name
When I look at you
I see a man
I loved some years ago
He whispered sweet words
And smiled at me
And then he took my body and soul
Your Daddy's eyes
Keep staring at me
But he′s not the man I'm married to
Your Daddy loved me
And he left me
The only thing he gave me was you.
