the father of girls

Perry Como

When youââ?¬â?¢re the father of boys,
How you worry,
But when youââ?¬â?¢re the father of girls,
You do more than that,
You Pray!

From the time of diaper and pin,
ââ?¬Ë?Till the time they cry, "donââ?¬â?¢t come in!"
ââ?¬Ë?Till the time you gown them in white,
And give them away,
You worry, you worry,
You worry, night and day!

When sheââ?¬â?¢s a plain little girl,
How you worry,
But when sheââ?¬â?¢s a beautiful thing,
You do more than that,
You pray!

Boys come ââ?¬Ë?round when they want a date,
Girls may only stay home and wait,
When sheââ?¬â?¢s out you sit up all night,
With her first baby toy!

You trust her, but worry,
ââ?¬Ë?Cause you were once a boy!

When youââ?¬â?¢re the father of boys,
How you worry,
But when youââ?¬â?¢re the father of girls,
You do more than that,
