Lyrics

VERSE1
I always hoped she would grow up to be a lady
As I watched her making MUDPIES in the yard
I couldn't help be laugh the day she started high school
She wouldn't ride with her parents in the car

VERSE2
But she's had me on a string since I first saw her
There wasn't any question from the start
She was a precious little angel sent from Heaven
Whose mission was to steal her daddy's heart

BRIDGE
And tomorrow she'll be going off to college
Where some lucky fellow's bound to come along
And his heart won't stand a chance no more than mine did
The first time I held her in my arms

VERSE3
Cause today she is a beautiful young lady
I've never seen such elegance and charm
And I'll cherish all these mem'rys that she gave me
Like watching her making MUDPIES in the yard

ENDING
I can see her, she's making MUDPIES in the yard...
