Oh Papa he said you must turn the lights down low

Oh Papa he said that way no one will ever know

And Papa he said what kind of trouble are you in?



Well Papa he said you must go down on your knees

Oh Papa he said you must do what it takes to please

Papa he said if you've done everything I've told you to

and I've never had the feeling in the past

and I never felt I needed to impress

I should know



Well Papa he said you must walk up the hill

Oh Papa he said if you don't someone else will

Papa he said if you've done everything I've told you to

and I've never had the feeling in the past

and I've never felt I needed to impress



Well Papa he said you must turn the lights down low

Oh Papa he said that way no one will ever know

Papa he said if you follow him wherever he may go, don't say no



Oh Papa he said you must walk up the hill

Papa he said if you don't no one else will

No one else will

Turn the lights down low

No one will know

Turn the lights down low

The lights down low...
