"Daddy's Daughter" lyrics

Hey, Robyn, grumpy old dad here
Just wanted to say how proud I am of you
And I'll always be here for you if you need me
Love you

Right now, my life's crazy and I'm tryna get a grip
But I can't help but let my mind just say it how it is
Feeling run of the mill like I'm far from original
Unremarkable, middle of the road, but
There's one little thing that I'm always forgetting
So I put it in this song that I'm singing

When I don't think I can change the world
When I compare myself to every other girl
When I find out I can't walk on water
And the world doesn't want what I offer
When something I do isn't life-changing
And there's no applause when I gave it everything
I remember, I remember, I remember
All I gotta be, all I gotta be
Is my daddy's daughter

If I ever win a grammy, yeah, that would be sick
But nothing could be better than getting to tell him
Yeah, the dude's pretty cool, taught me how to tie my shoes
How to play by the rules and when not to
He's my biggest fan when I don't deserve a fan
And he raised me to love who I am

When I don't think I can change the world
When I compare myself to every other girl
When I find out I can't walk on water
And the world doesn't want what I offer
When something I do isn't life-changing
And there's no applause when I gave it everything
I remember, I remember, I remember
All I gotta be, all I gotta be
Is my daddy's daughter
Is my daddy's daughter

He's the reason that I love country music
And the first to hear all my songs
When I think that I'm lost in this crazy world
He reminds me of where I belong

When I don't think I can change the world
When I compare myself to every other girl
When I find out I can't walk on water
And the world doesn't want what I offer
When something I do isn't life-changing
And there's no applause when I gave it everything
I remember, I remember, I remember, oh
When something I do isn't life-changing
And there's no applause when I gave it everything
I remember, I remember, I remember, oh
I remember, I remember, I remember
All I gotta be, all I gotta be
Is my daddy's daughter
