Daddy's Little Girl

I was always good at games
Crouching down behind the plate
Daddy's in the bleachers, calling out my name
But now there's silence in our house
Daddy won't say my name out loud
Funny how loud the silence sounds


Chorus
And nothing's really different, I'm still the same
Telling you the truth has made you change
I'm not Daddy's little girl anymore, anymore, anymore
I'm not Daddy's little girl anymore, anymore, anymore


Daddy raised me a confident kid
I led the softball team in hits
I got to base more than any boy ever did
A debutante in Birmingham
Long white dress and a summer tan
I came out but not the way Daddy planned

Chorus
