Your daddy know you’re a flame
Your daddy know you’re a flame
Your daddy know you’re a flame
Your daddy know you’re a flame

Even to the angels it may sound like a lie
For you child
He has the troops and extra backup standing by
For you child
For you he’s the best he can be
For you child
For you he’s the best he can be
Oh child don’t you know
Your daddy love come with a life time guarantee
