the only daddy that ll

Elvis Costello

Everybody knows you been steppin on my toes
And I m gettin pretty tired of it
Keep steppin outta line and messin with my mind
If you had any sense, you d quit

But ever since you were just a little bitty girl
Since I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then you ll find
You got the only daddy that ll walk the line

I keep workin everyday, all you wanna do is play
I m sick of stayin out all night
You ve been coming unglued from your funny little moods
So, honey-baby, that ain t right

Cause ever since you were just a little bitty girl
Since I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then you ll find
You got the only daddy that ll walk the line

Everybody knows you been steppin on my toes
And still just puttin me on
When I start-a-walkin , don t I hear you start-a-squawkin
Beggin me to come back home

Cause ever since you were just a little bitty girl
Since I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then you ll find
