If Father Time Had A Daughter Lyrics


Walker Hayes If Father Time Had A Daughter

[Intro]
Two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Saturday sleep late, bed head smile
Daddy daughter date down the cereal aisle
Shopping cart ride with my Goldilocks
Little arms wrapped 'round a Lucky Charms box
Right there, that's my world
Father Time must've never had a little girl
I know I'm gonna blink and I'm gonna be a mess
When that Cinderella shirt is a wedding dress
[Chorus]
And they gon' play that song, it's so bittersweet
And I'll remember her in her little bare feet
Dancing on her toes on my boots
I'ma try not to cry, but shoot
Y'all gon' have to give me a brеak if you see a few tears
Thesе are just some really, really, really good years
I bet daddy's girls would stay little a little bit longer
If Father Time had a daughter

[Verse 2]
Y'all, I can't wait to meet who she becomes
Yeah, I know, she can't stay forever young
Hell, I pray for the guy that gets to lift that veil
But I'm even gonna miss letting her paint my nails

[Chorus]
When they play that song, it's so bittersweet (So bittersweet)
And I'll remember her in her little bare feet (In her little bare feet)
Dancing on her toes on my boots
I'ma try not to cry, but shoot
Y'all gon' have to give me a break if you see a few tears (If you see a few tears)
These are just some really, really, really good years (Just some really good years)
I bet daddy's girls would stay little a little bit longer
If Father Time had a daughter
[Bridge]
Yeah, slow it on down, down, down
Have mercy on a girl dad
Yeah, I know before I know it, I'ma turn around
And it's gonna hurt bad

[Chorus]
When they play that song, it's so bittersweet
And I'll remember her in her little bare feet
Dancing on her toes on my boots
I'ma try not to cry, but shoot
Y'all gon' have to give me a break if you see a few tears (If you see a few tears)
These are just some some really, really, really good years (Just some really good years)
I bet daddy's girls would stay little a little bit longer
If Father Time had a daughter
