Oh little one, I know you will grow so bold and strong
Oh beautiful, there's no way you can go wrong
But tread in footsteps follow my heel
I'll provide a break, a shield Ooh
Oh little one, I know they'll be knocking at my door
Oh beautiful, you'll go
and you'll leave them wanting more
But tread in footsteps follow my heel
I'll provide a break, a shield Ooh
And even when cold wind's blowing right through
I'll cripple my back to shelter you you
And when they're calling your name
Don't forget what you're leaving
?Cause I'll be singing the same
Little song that I taught you this evening
By the fireside whilst you lay sleeping, little one
Now my girl, you'll fall for the one who doesnt care
How he'll hold your heart and how he'll hold your stare
But tread in footsteps follow my heel
I'll provide a break, a shield Ooh
And even when cold wind's blowing right through
I'll cripple my back to shelter you you
And when he's calling your name
Don't forget what you're leaving
?Cause I'll be singing the same
Little song that I taught you this evening
By the fireside whilst you lay sleeping, little one
Oh little one, I know you will grow so bold and strong
Oh beautiful, there's no way you can go wrong
But tread in footsteps follow my heel
I'll provide a break, a shield Ooh
Oh little one, I know they'll be knocking at my door
Oh beautiful, you'll go
and you'll leave them wanting more
But tread in footsteps follow my heel
I'll provide a break, a shield Ooh
And even when cold wind's blowing right through
I'll cripple my back to shelter you you
And when they're calling your name
Don't forget what you're leaving
?Cause I'll be singing the same
Little song that I taught you this evening
By the fireside whilst you lay sleeping, little one
Now my girl, you'll fall for the one who doesnt care
How he'll hold your heart and how he'll hold your stare
But tread in footsteps follow my heel
I'll provide a break, a shield Ooh
And even when cold wind's blowing right through
I'll cripple my back to shelter you you
And when he's calling your name
Don't forget what you're leaving
?Cause I'll be singing the same
Little song that I taught you this evening
