lyrics

I wrote a song your daddy would like,
it's short and to the point.
It's not about The Old Time Rock and Roll
it's not about his Honky Tonk Joint.
He's gotta know about his little girl,
his princess and these guys.
You know that I will tell him the truth,
you know I'm so bad with lies.

I will wipe you off the counter,
mop you off the bathroom floor.
I will drive you up the driveway,
I'll be gone when he opens the door.

I cut a new demo for your dad,
I just hope that he understands.
I'm bitter, I'm jaded and I'm confused.
I feel older than your old man.
I'm feeling jittery and so nervous,
can you tell me what to do?
I had a heart-to-heart with myself,
and the only issue is YOU.

I will wipe you off the counter,
mop you off the bathroom floor.
I will drive you up the driveway,
I'll be gone when he opens the door.

I will wipe you off the counter,
mop you off the bathroom floor.
I will drive you up the driveway,
I'll be gone when he opens the door.

I will wipe you off the counter,
mop you off the bathroom floor.
I will drive you up the driveway,
I'll be gone when he opens the door.
