Its not easy being “Daddy’s little girl”,
In a teenage world.

“Daddy, theres a guy outside, His name is Scott;
He wants to know if I can go for a ride.
Can I daddy?  Please, just this once let me slide.”

I just stand there and smile,
And he just stares for a while.


“Daddy, theres a guy outside, his name is Justin,
He wants to know if we can go on a date,
Daddy, hes waiting, I'm gonna be late.”

I'm growing up in a teenage world,
It’s not easy when it’s going by in a whirl.

"Daddy, theres a guy outside, his name is Paul,
He wants to know if we can go steady,
Please Daddy, I think I'm ready.”

So many things change in a teenager’s life,
And adults wonder why they cause such strife!

“Daddy, theres a guy outside, his name is Gary,
He wants to know if I can go for a walk,
He says we really have to talk.”

What is a teenager to do?
When she has no where to go, no one to talk to?

"Daddy, theres a guy outside, his name is Steven,
He wants to know if I’ll marry him,
I said yes, Daddy, I’m not blowing in the wind”

I know I'm young, a mere teen,
But this is the strongest love I've ever seen.

It's not easy being a girl's daddy,
It's hard, it's sad, it's fun,
Watching as our "babies" grow,
Knowing our job is done.

So many "evils" in this old world,
Trying to shelter our kids from all,
But we can't stop mother nature,
Sometimes we have to let you fall.

I was probably the most difficult kid,
That any parent could bear,
And now that I'm grown and have kids of my own,
I know why my parents had fears.

It's not easy being a teenager,
Nor a parent that loves you so,
So try to look at things through our eyes,
Cuz it's hard to watch you grow.

I enjoyed reading your poem. It is tough being a daddy's girl.

i know its hard being "daddys'  lil girl", thats why i wrote this, but its even harder when you have 3 protectivce older brothers, and btw, the part "Daddy, theres a guy outside, his name is Steven,
He wants to know if I’ll marry him,
I said yes, Daddy, I’m not blowing in the wind”  is true, 3 weeks ago, i was proposed, to, i had to slip that part in on my parents to see what they say
