[Verse 1]
If you've got a little girl, you better take the time
To go to her tea parties and give her a piggyback ride
Be a dragon or a dinosaur every chance you get
Cause one day you can bet

[Chorus]
She'll go on you
Before you turn can around
And it's so lonely watching that
Fast train leaving town
Better cherish her every second of your life
Cause this precious little thing that we call time
She'll go on you

[Verse 2]
If you got a special one
You better love her everyday
Leave her notes on the fridge rather door
And send her sweet bouquets
Always be her confidant
A safe place for her to rest
Or that little thing you call you happiness

[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
If you've got you momma there
You outta thank her every day
For nursing all your colds and
Sitting' up when you'd stay out late
Now all her hair is grey, and every year she's not as strong
One of these days before to long

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Yeah this precious little thing that we call life
She'll go on you
