MESSING UP MY LIFE

I saw him Monday morning

By his locker in the hall

Walked by me like a stranger

With no contact at all

My Daddy introduced him

To the way that fear ignites

Two hours past my Curfew

On our date Friday night

~~~*Chorus*~~~

You will suffer, if you touch her

Not a single hand

I will shoot you , like a varmint

Drop you where you stand

Burning rubber, on the concrete

Ripping from the drive

My Daddy, oh sweet Daddy

You're messing up my life

~~*~~

When I had finished high school

I thought college would change my luck

But Daddy had to drive me

In his bad-a** truck

I couldn't disrespect him

When the cops were on the way

You don't mention guns on campus

You don't threaten guys that way

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~

There are many kinds of Fathers

You can flip a coin

Mine will go to jail

Just to prove a point

You don't touch his Daughter

No one even tries

Daddy, oh sweet Daddy

You're messing up my life

~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~

You will suffer, if you touch her

Not a single hand

I will shoot you , like a varmint

Drop you where you stand

Burning rubber, on the concrete

Ripping from the drive

My Daddy, oh sweet Daddy

You're messing up my life

~~*~~
