'Walk a little slower, Daddy',
Said a little child so small.
'I'm following in your footsteps,
And I don't want to fall.
Sometimes your steps are very fast,
Sometimes they're hard to see;
So walk a little slower, Daddy
For you are leading me.
Someday when I'm all grown up,
Said a little child so small.
'I'm following in your footsteps,
And I don't want to fall.
Sometimes your steps are very fast,
Sometimes they're hard to see;
So walk a little slower, Daddy
For you are leading me.
Someday when I'm all grown up,
You're what I want to be;
Then I will have a little child
Then I will have a little child
Who'll want to follow me.
And I would want to lead just right,
And know that I was true;
And I would want to lead just right,
And know that I was true;
So, walk a little slower, Daddy
For I must follow you.'
For I must follow you.'
