| And when his daddy would visit he'd come along, |
| E B |
| When they gathered round and started talking, |

| B |
| Through the back yard we'd go walking, |
| B |
| Then he'd look into my eyes, |
| B |
| Lord knows to my suprise: |

| The look that was in his eyes, |
| A B |
| Stealing kisses from me on the sly, |

| B E |
| Telling me that he's all mine, |
| E |
| Learning from each others knowing, |
| E |
| Lookin' to see how much we've grown and |
