1
Can I talk to you, baby
2
When I was a little girl
3
I didn't have a father
4
And that's why I'm leaning on you..
5
When I was a baby
6
I didn't get a hug from daddy
7
That's why I need a hug from you..
8
Ohh, It's not easy and
9
I thank you for putting up with me
10
When you don't have a daddy's love
11
To say that you...
12
To say that I'm your little girl
13
(Are his little girl, Oh why didn't you love me)
14
And give you the love..(I need love yeah yeah yeah)
15
you really deserve (And i believe I deserve it And that's why
16
[chorus]
17
That's why I need, The father in you
18
(I need the father in you, baby)
19
That's why I need, (Please don't hurt me please)
20
The father in you
21
That's why I need (Oh that's why)
22
The father in you (Really need you)
23
That's why I need (Please be true)
24
The father in you
25
Oh, things got bad, to the point
26
Where mommy couldn't hold us down
27
And that's when it hurt me so much
28
To see her, To see her cry
29
(Oh don't cry, momma don't cry momma)
30
Each and every night
31
(We're gonna be alright that's what I used to say)
32
I said that some day
33
That I would try to take his place
34
But it was too hard;
35
It was so hard trying to be a man and a woman
36
And that's why I need the father in you
37
[chorus]
38
That's why I need, (oh I needed)
39
The father in you, (I put my trust on you)
40
That's why I need, (Please don't let me domn)
41
The father in you.
42
That's why I need,
43
The father in you (I need the father in you)
44
That's why I need (Hold my hand)
45
The father in you
46
[Breakdown]
47
Because we never had one at home
48
(No No No) As a little girl...
49
So I understand, why daddy couldn't be there
50
Cause it's so obvious nobody taught him, how to be father to me
51
Oh and I'm not sayin this
52
to reminisce on the past
53
I'm just saying this to make you understand, That I needed a father
54
And this is my problem
55
This is why I couldn't keep no one
56
This is why I couldn't stay alone
57
I was so scared alone
58
Every woman needs a man
59
And I don't think she understands
60
That she really needs a father
61
The father in you, my brother
62
She really needed the father
63
The father in you.
64
When your wife is speaking fellas
65
Pay attention,Yeah,don't ignore her
66
No,no,no I really need the father in you.
