Lyric

The Declaration of Independence

Think I could tell you that first sentence but then I'm lost

I can't begin to count the theories

I've had pounded in my head that I forgot

I don't remember all that Spanish

Or The Gettysburg Address

But there is one speech from high school

I'll never forget

Come on in boy, sit on down

And tell me 'bout yourself

So, you like my daughter, do you now?

Yeah, we think she's some' else

She's her daddy's girl

Her momma's world

She deserves respect

That's what she'll get, ain't it son?

Now, y'all run along and have some fun

I'll see you when you get back

Bet I'll be up all night

Still cleaning this gun

Well, now that I'm a father

I'm scared to death one day my daughter

Is gonna find that teenage boy I used to be

That seems to have just one thing on his mind

She's growin' up so fast

It won't be long before

Yeah, I'll have to put the fear of God

Into some kid at the door

Yeah, come on in boy, sit on down

And tell me 'bout yourself

So you like my daughter, do you now?

Yeah, we think she's some' else

She's her daddy's girl

Her momma's world

She deserves respect

That's what she'll get, now ain't it son?

Now y'all go out and have some fun

And I'll see you when you get back

Probably be up all night

Still cleaning this gun

Now it's all for show

Ain't nobody gonna get hurt

It's just a daddy thing

And hey, believe me, man, it works

Yeah, come on in boy, sit on down

And tell me 'bout yourself

So you like my daughter, do you now?

Yeah, we think she's some' else

She's her daddy's girl

Her momma's world

She deserves respect

That's what she'll get, ain't it son?

Now y'all run along and have a little fun

And I'll see you when you get back

Probably be up all night

Still cleaning this gun

Ah, son, now y'all buckle up

And have her back by ten, uh

Let's say 'bout 9:30

Drive safe

- It's already the end -
