Put down your cigarettes, put down your cider
Put your drugs down, sit down beside her
Outside the schoolyard, in her wrong world
Remember you're her dad, she's your girl
(she's your girl, your girl, your girl, your girl)

Wrap your feelings up, I did no show her
Keep them out of reach, tell her you're sober
It's not so difficult and it's not easy
Just spend one day with her, not feeling guilty

Yes, I love
Yes, I love
Yes, I love
Yes, I love her

Put down your cigarettes, put down your cider
Put your life away, sit down beside her
Outside the schoolyard, in her wrong world
Remember you're her dad, she's your girl

Yes, I love
Yes, I love
Yes, I love
Yes, I love her
