"Daddy Lessons" lyrics
"Daddy Lessons"
(originally by Beyoncé)
Came into this world Daddy's little girl
And Daddy made a soldier out of me (Ooh)
Daddy made me dance, Daddy held my hand
And Daddy liked his whiskey with his tea
We rode motorcycles
Blackjack, classic vinyl
Tough girl is what I had to be
He said, "Take care of your mother
Watch out for your sister"
That's when Daddy gave to me
With his gun and his head held high, he told me not to cry
Oh, my daddy said shoot
Oh, my daddy said shoot
With his right hand on his rifle, he swore it on the Bible
My daddy said shoot
Oh, my daddy said shoot
He held me in his arms, he taught me to be strong
He told me when he's gone, "Here's what to do
When trouble comes to town and men like me come around"
Oh, my daddy said shoot
Oh, my daddy said shoot
Ooh
Daddy made me fight, it wasn't always right
But he said, "Girl, it's your Second Amendment"
He always played it cool, but Daddy was no fool
And right before he died, he said, "Remember"
He said, "Take care of your mother
Watch out for your sister"
That's when Daddy looked at me
With his gun and his head held high, he told me not to cry
Oh, my daddy said shoot
Oh, my daddy said shoot
With his right hand on his rifle, he swore it on the Bible
My daddy said shoot
Oh, my daddy said shoot
He held me in his arms, he taught me to be strong
He told me when he's gone, "Here's what to do
When trouble comes to town, men like me come around"
Oh, my daddy said shoot
Oh, my daddy said shoot
Ooh
Ooh
My daddy warned me about men like you
He said, "Baby girl, he's playing you, he's playing you" (Ooh)
My daddy warned me about men like you
He said, "Baby girl, he's playing you, he's playing you" (Ooh)
"'Cause when trouble comes to town and men like me come around"
Oh, my daddy said shoot
Oh, my daddy said shoot
"'Cause when trouble comes to town and men like me come around"
Oh, my daddy said shoot
Oh, my daddy said shoot
