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
Crying, 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
Crying, 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, slow down some
'Cause you're making me run
Daddy, don't you walk so fast
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 Crying, 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 Crying, 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, slow down some 'Cause you're making me run Daddy, don't you walk so fast Explain Request ×
