Since she was [F] born I [Am] loved her, but [Bb] we were soon [Am] apart
She was [F] closer to her [Am] mother [Bb] from the [C] start
I was [Bb] happy enough strollin' her [Am] around
But it seemed like [Bb] something was tying me [C] down
But gone are the [F] days when I'd be [Am] reading while [Bb] holdin' her on my [Am] lap
The [F] days when I'd get [Am] impatient for her [Bb] afternoon [C] nap
Gone are the [Bb] days when I would [Am] leave as soon as her [Bb] mother would [C] allow
[Bb] My little girl's got a [C] full time daddy [F] now
I've [F] always been a [Am] good dad but not [Bb] confident truth be [Am] told
Yeah but [F] now, [Am] now I come [Bb] straight from my [C] soul
If there is a [Bb] problem I'll work it [Am] out somehow
[Bb] My little girl's got a [C] full time daddy [F] now
Well she was [Bb] closer to her [Am] mother and [Bb] that's no [C] crime
But not [Dm] now, [Am] now she's got a [Bb] daddy full [C] time
It took her [Bb] momma and me [Am] splittin for me to [Bb] come into my [Am] own
But it was [Dm] worth it for the way we are walking hand in [C] hand to school alone
Gone are the [F] days when I would be [Am] next to her, but [Bb] thinking about [Am] myself
The [F] days when I'd be [Am] frantic for her [Bb] mom to come home and [C] help
Those days are [Bb] gone, Those days are [Am] gone, Let every [Bb] witness now [C] avow
[Bb] My little girl's got a [C] full time daddy [Dm] now
[Bb] My little girl's got a [C] full time daddy [F] now
Since she was born I loved her, but we were soon apart
She was closer to her mother from the start
I was happy enough strollin' her around
But it seemed like something was tying me down
But gone are the days when I'd be reading while holdin' her on my lap
The days when I'd get impatient for her afternoon nap
Gone are the days when I would leave as soon as her mother would allow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
I've always been a good dad but not confident truth be told
Yeah but now, now I come straight from my soul
If there is a problem I'll work it out somehow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
Well she was closer to her mother and that's no crime
But not now, now she's got a daddy full time
It took her momma and me splitting for me to come into my own
But it was worth it for the way we are walking hand in hand to school alone
Gone are the days when I would be next to her, but thinking about myself
The days when I'd be frantic for her mom to come home and help
Those days are gone, Those days are gone, Let every witness now avow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
Since she was born I loved her, but we were soon apart
She was closer to her mother from the start
And I was happy enough strollin' her around
But it seemed like something was there holding me down
But gone are the days when I would be reading while holdin' her on my lap
The days when I'd get impatient for her afternoon nap
Gone are the days when I would leave as soon as her mother would allow
See My little girl's got a full time daddy now
I've always been a good dad but not confident truth be told
Yeah but now, well now I come straight from my soul
And If there's a problem well I'll figure things out somehow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
See she was closer to her mother and that's no crime
But not now, now she's got a daddy full time
It took her momma and me splitting for me to come into my own
But it was worth it for the way we are hand in hand to school alone
Gone are the days when I would be next to her, but thinking about myself
The days when I'd be all frantic for her mom to come home and help
Those days are gone, let every witness now avow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now, yes
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
Since she was born I loved her, but we were soon apart
She was closer to her mother right from the start
I was happy enough strollin' her around
But it felt like something was holding me down
But gone are the days when I'd be reading while holdin' her on my lap
The days when I'd be impatient for her afternoon nap
Gone are the days when I would leave as soon as her mother would allow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
I've always been a good dad but not confident truth be told
But now, now I come straight from my soul
And If there is a problem I'll figure it out somehow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
She was closer to her mother and that's no crime
But not now, now she's got a daddy full time
It took her momma and me splitting for me to come into my own
But it was worth it for the way we are walking hand in hand to school alone
Gone are the days when I'd be next to her, but thinking about myself
The days when I'd be frantic for her mom to come home and help
Those days are gone, Those days are gone, Let every witness now avow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
My little girl has got a full time daddy now
Since she was born I loved her, but we were soon apart
She was closer to her mother from the start
And I was happy enough just strollin' her around
But it always felt like something was holding me down
But gone are the days when I'd be reading while holdin' her on my lap
The days when I'd get impatient for her afternoon nap
Gone are the days when I would leave as soon as her mother would allow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
Well I've always been a good dad but not confident truth be told
Yeah but now, I come straight from my soul
And if there is a problem I'll work it out somehow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
Well she was closer to her mother and that's no crime
But not now, now she's got a daddy full time
It took her momma and me splitting for me to come into my own
But it was worth it for the way we are hand in hand to school alone
Gone are the days when I would be next to her, but thinking about myself
The days when I'd be frantic for her mom to come home please and help
Those days are gone, Let every witness now avow
My little girl's got a full time daddy now
My little girl has got a full time daddy now
