If you got a little girl You'd better take the time To go to her tea parties Give her a piggy-back ride Be a dragon or a dinosaur Every chance you get 'Cause one day you can bet... She'll go on you Before you can turn around And it's so lonely Watching that fast train leaving town You better cherish her Every second of your life 'Cause this precious little thing That we call time She'll go on you If you got a special one You'd better love her everyday Leave her notes on the 'frigerator door And send her sweet bouquets Always be a confidant A safe place for her to rest Oh that little thing you call your happiness... She'll go on you Before you can turn around And it's so lonely Watching that fast train leaving town You better cherish her Every second of your life Take her in your arms And do her right She'll go on you If you got your mamma there You outa thank her everyday for nursing all your colds and sitting up when you stay up late all her hair is grey and every year she's not as strong one of these days before too long... She'll go on you Before you can turn around And it's so lonely Watching that fast train leaving town You better cherish her Every second of your life 'Cause before you get the chance To say goodbye She'll go on you Yeah this precious little thing That we call life She'll go on you ...Yeah she will...
