i hO6NIA swung 6PdLLy
For her baby eyes were sparkling ane
her cheeks were dimpled so
That | caught her and / kissed her a!
| proud dad will, you know.
When she first said "daddy"-Lord-
| almost whooped in glee
For / heard the angels singing ane
the world looked good to me
And her mamma smiled her pleasure
as she looked at me so glad
just big old awkward man, but oil
the light heart that I had.
When she first said, daddy" oh, oul

AS though she'd pointed me the way
along the Sunshine Road
And never knew that earth could
hold for any man such bliss
AS when she called me daddy" and
| answered with a kiss.
