She had such tiny tears

Just like a Barbie doll

She likes to shop at Sears

And visit shopping malls

Now she's a big mamma

Tell poppa

Cry, cry, cry, cry



Old Money

Your old money doesn't matter now

Have mercy

Mercy, mercy, daddy's going fishing now

He put the bait onto his line

He's winding out his reel

Fish are swimming in the pond

Gonna let 'em sail away



He's got his eye on you

He knows just what she wants

The fish is gonna bite

She is his latest catch

'Cause he's Big Daddy

Oh, mammy

Cry, cry, cry, cry



Big Daddy

Oh, daddy's scraping bottom now

Oh, momma

Daddy, daddy, daddy does the talking now

Mesmerized like horny toads

By shiny things like jewels and gold

Throwing all their pearls to swing

Let 'em sail away



You lucky dog

You'll be on Easy Street

Drinking champagne

She gets all that she wants

His heart's desire

No more worries anymore

Like a fairy tale

Anything that she likes



I seen you do the dog

I seen you getting down

A swimming back and forth

When daddy's not around



Big Daddy

Oh, she's pretty as a picture now

Oh, momma

Oh, what a little martyr now

He knows how to drive 'em wild

One day you'd think she'd see

Saying "This is mine and this is her.

Now take that stuff away"



It's best left unspoken

One and one is two

The velvet lies sing softly

Each with a golden spoon

And she passed her time in the wind and the rain

Got a one way ticket on a Southbound train

Said baby, baby, wants to have a good time

And Big Daddy laughed

And Big Daddy smiled



Like dynamite

One fine day she'll explode

Who's laughing now?

No one sees anymore

Sneak in and out

Don't get caught running 'round

Swim back and forth

Bubbles float to the top
