Now sweet lil ol' brown eyed girl, hey, now Now that you're sleepin' I've got a confession to make Of secrets that I've been keepin' Me and your mama had some problems A whole lotta things on our minds But lately, girl, we've been thinkin' that we were wastin' time Nearly all the time, and Your daddy loves you Your daddy loves his girl Your daddy loves you Your daddy loves his girl, hey now Now sweet lil ol' chocolate girl Now that you're sleepin' I feel braver I've got a confession to make
