Walk With Me, Daddy
Walk alongside me,Daddy
and hold my little hand
I have so many things to learn
that I don't yet understand
Teach me things to keep me safe
from dangers everyday
Show me how to do my best
at home, at school, at play
Every child needs a gentle hand
to guide them as they grow
So walk alongside me, Daddy
We have a long way to go
