Lyrics

HEY, LITTLE ONE

Hey, I’ve got you on the line
I just called to say goodnight
Tell you that I’m fine
Yeah, another day and another dollar
But being a time zone away from you
Makes me wanna holler
Hey, I hear somebody fussing – tell her Daddy’s here
Honey put that phone right up to her tiny ear

Hey, Little One, Hey, sugar bun
Are you being good? Are you having fun?
I couldn’t miss you more than I do now
Your toothless smile and chubby cheeks
Make your Daddy’s knees go weak
I’ll bring you home a treat, if I’m allowed
Hey, Hey, Hey, Little One

Yeah, I was sure I paid that bill
I can be so scattered
When I get back I will
No, I didn’t notice those 5 pounds
I don’t care how much you weigh
I’ll still chase you around
I got two more days here can’t wait ‘til I get home
Honey, one more time, put my daughter on the phone


Hey Little One, Hey sugar plum
Do you realize you got the world’s best Mom?
I miss you both so much, it’s just not fair
We dreamed of you, before you came
We bought you clothes and chose your name
You showed up and answered all our prayers
Hey, Hey, Hey, Little One


Hey, I think I heard a yawn
It’s time for my two girls
To turn in and dream on…….
