Lyrics

You got me smilin' again You got me smilin' again Smilin' again You got me smilin' again One night of pleasure, nine months of pain Three days later and that's when you came Two arms, two legs, ten fingers, ten toes Brown eyes like Mom, with your grandmother's nose Even though you're momma's baby And daddy's little baby My love is unconditional to one of us is Swayze Day or night, roll the light, no matter what you do Like the Jackson 5 said, "I'll be there for you" 'cause My life is your life and your life is mine Through thick and thin, I'm your friend 'til the end of time I'll make sure you get your props, you can call me pops And anything you need, I'll pulling out of the stops Even though we're not together like we used to be D-A-D-D-Y, you can count on me 'Cause when I'm feelin' down every now and then I take a look into your eyes and I smile again You got me smilin' again You got me smilin' again Smilin' again You got me smilin' again Forget about Batman, Superman and the Power Rangers 'Cause I'ma be your hero if you ever in some danger This ain't the Huckstables and my name ain't Cliff No matter how old you get, you could get that ass whipped Daddy, don't take no mess And I ain't gone settle for nothing less than your very best When I do what I do 'cause you did what you did It's 'cause I ain't the kind of father that be raising no dumb ass kids You gots to be a leader, it's my responsibility to teach ya Right from wrong and make decisions of your own I never said that I was perfect, but I know you're worth it so I'ma do my damnest, to make sure you get some chances So just listen to your Daddy 'cause he tryin' to tell ya something And don't let nobody tell ya I don't love ya, 'cause they frontin' 'Cause when I'm feelin' down, every now and then I take a look into your eyes and I smile again You got me smilin' again You got me smilin' again Smilin' again You got me smilin' again You got me smilin' La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la You got me smilin' La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la Every day is a struggle, when life is like a puzzle That we gotta put together, together so and ever You need a shoulder to cry on and someone you can rely on Your daddy's home I'm tryin' to build a foundation on which you could stand When you's a grown woman and you's a grown man I got open ears when the world ain't tryin' to hear When I can't be there in the flesh, I'm there in the spirit I'm tryna make an impression on the things that you stand for The knowledge that I give, you could teach your kids I know it's hard growing up 'cause I used to be a youngsta So we gon' work as a team So the the nigga don't take ya under People, let me tell ya about my best friends 'Cause I'm down with the children, all the way 'til the end 'Cause when I'm feelin' down, every now and then I take a look into they eyes and I smile again You got me smilin' again You got me smilin' again Smilin' again You got me smilin' again Smilin' again (you got me smilin') You got me smilin' again Smilin' again You got me smilin' again
