Daddy Don't You Walk So Fast

(Peter Callander - Geoff Stephens)



The love between the two of us was dying

And it got so bad I knew I had to leave

But halfway down that highway when I turned around I saw

My little daughter running after me.



Cryin' daddy, don't you walk so fast

Daddy, don't you walk so fast

Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're making me run

Daddy, don't you walk so fast.



It broke my heart to tell my little daughter

That her daddy had to run to catch a train

She had no way of knowing I was leaving home for good

I turned around and there was again.



Cryin' daddy, don't you walk so fast

Daddy, don't you walk so fast

Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're making me run

Daddy, don't you walk so fast.



If only for the sake of my sweet daughter

I just had to turn back home right there and then

And try to start a new life with the mother of my child

I couldn't bear to hear those words again.



Daddy, don't you walk so fast

Daddy, don't you walk so fast

Daddy, slow down some 'cause you're making me run

Daddy, don't you walk so fast.



Daddy slow down some cause you're making me run

Daddy don't you walk so fast...
