My C#papa told me the F#day would come, when D#mI would want to C#love some one. He C#sat me down F#on his knee, and D#mthese are the words he C#said to me.
(He said):
C#One of these days you're going to reach 18, and D#mall the boys ya see is gonna call ya a queen. You'll smile, and blush, and hold your head up high. But the C#same little boys will make you cry. So the F#best thing to do when you reach this age. Is to C#be a good girl, remember what I say.
You make em D#mwait. And pick your F#dates. Woah-oh make em C#wait, pick your dates, before you make a big mistake.
C#Know when true love comes your way. There D#mwon't be much that you will say. He'll walk right up and take you by your hand, and he'll C#lead you right straight to the preacher man. So the F#best thing to do when you reach this age. Is to C#be a good girl, remember what I say.
You make em D#mwait. And pick your F#dates. Woah-oh make em C#wait, pick your dates, before you make a big mistake.
F#Just because they treat you nice, doesn't mean they want a wife. C#Take your time, pick your friends, teach you love never ends. F#Though the dog will have his way, in the end you will say, D#remember your old father's words: G#Don't you be no fool now girl.
Yeah-eah-E-ayy
