Lyrics
LITTLE DARLING
LITTLE DARLING, GO OUT AND PICK A FLOWER FOR US TWO
LITTLE DARLING, THE SKY IS YOURS BECAUSE WE LOVE YOU
YOU’RE THE SWEETEST THING THAT EVER CAME ALONG
NOW HOW COULD WE GO WRONG, LITTLE DARLING
LITTLE BABY, YOUR EYES ARE FRESH AS MORNING DEW
LITTLE BABY, YOU ALWAYS GOT A SMILE TO SEE US THROUGH
HANGING ON TO THAT RAGGED TEDDY BEAR
SAY YOUR PRAYERS, THROW YOUR KISSES IN THE AIR, LITTLE BABY
LITTLE DARLING, HOLDING ON TO GRANDMA’S APRON STRINGS
LITTLE DARLING, CALLING OUT, HEY GRANDPA PUSH MY SWING
MAMA SAYS YOU’RE UP TO MISCHIEF ALL THE TIME
DADDY SAYS, YOU AND MAMA ARE ALIKE, LITTLE DARLING
LITTLE DARLING, GO OUT AND PICK A FLOWER FOR US TWO
LITTLE DARLING, THE SKY IS YOURS BECAUSE WE LOVE YOU
YOU’RE THE SWEETEST THING THAT EVER CAME ALONG
NOW HOW COULD WE GO WRONG, WITH YOU LITTLE DARLING
BRIDGE
WHEN WE THINK WE GOT YOU TUCKED UP IN YOUR BED
THAT’S WHEN WE HEAR YOU CREEPING DOWN THE STAIRS
AH LITTLE BABY
LITTLE DARLING, THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER YOU
LITTLE DARLING, PLEASE DON’T GROW UP TOO SOON
SOMEDAY YOUR DREAMS WILL ALL COME TRUE
AND WE’LL BE THERE TO SHARE IT WITH YOU
LITTLE DARLING, AH LITTLE DARLING, WE LOVE YOU
