[Chorus 1]
Well, I woke up late this morning
My head was in a whirl
Only then I realized
I lost my little girl
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Chorus 2]
Well, her clothes were not expensive
Her hair didn't always curl
I don't know why I love her
But I love my little girl
Oh, oh, oh, oh

[Bridge]
Well, gather 'round people
Let me tell you the story of the very first song I wrote
Well, gather 'round people
Let me tell you the story of the very first song I wrote

[Chorus 1]
I woke up late this morning
My head was in a whirl
Only then I realized
I lost my little girl
Oh, oh, oh, oh, I said
[Spoken Outro]
Thank you, thank you
We never did it because of that line "Her hair didn't always curl"
Couldn't handle that line, still, there you go
Many years later, I wrote this one
