Lyrics Elvis Costello – The Only Daddy That’ll Walk The Line

Everybody knows you been steppin’ on my toes
And I’m gettin pretty tired of it
Keep steppin’ outta line and messin’ with my mind
If you had any sense, you’d quit

But ever since you were just a little bitty girl
Since I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then you’ll find
You got the only daddy that’ll walk the line

I keep workin’ everyday, all you wanna do is play
I’m sick of stayin’ out all night
You’ve been coming unglued from your funny little moods
So, honey-baby, that ain’t right

‘Cause ever since you were just a little bitty girl
Since I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then you’ll find
You got the only daddy that’ll walk the line

Everybody knows you been steppin’ on my toes
And still just puttin’ me on
When I start-a-walkin’, don’t I hear you start-a-squawkin’
Beggin’ me to come back home

‘Cause ever since you were just a little bitty girl
Since I was the only man in this whole world
Now you better do some thinking then you’ll find
You got the only daddy that’ll walk the line
