Got me smilin' again
And I ain't gone settle for nothing less than your very best
So we gon' work as a team
You got me smilin', again you
I'm tryin' to build a foundation on which you could stand
And don't let nobody tell ya, I don't love ya 'coz they frontin'
Three days later and that's when you came
Smilin', again you
Right from wrong and make decisions of your own
You got me smilin', again you
It's 'coz I ain't the kind of father that be raising no dumb ass kids
You gosta be a leader, it's my responsibility to teach ya
When you's a grown woman and you's a grown man
Got me smilin' again
No matter how old you get, you could get that ass whipped
That we gotta put together, together so and ever
Even though you're Momma's baby
Smilin', again you
You got me smilin', again you
Got me smilin' again
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
And anything you need, I'll pull it out of the stops
You got me smilin'
I take a look into your eyes and I smile again
I never said that I was perfect but I know you're worth it so
You got me smilin'
Even though we're not together like we used to be
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Got me smilin', again
So the [incomprehensible] don't take ya under
'Coz I'ma be your hero if you ever in some danger
Day or night, roll the light, no matter what you do
The knowledge that I give, you could teach your kids
Your Daddy's home
Smilin', again you
Got me smilin', again
Two arms, two legs, ten fingers, ten toes
Through thick and thin I'm your friend 'til the end of time
Forget about Batman, Superman and the Power Rangers
I take a look into your eyes and I smile again
Got me smilin', again
My love is unconditional to one of us is Swayze
This ain't the Huckstables and my name ain't Cliff
I take a look into they eyes and I smile again
When I do what I do 'coz you did what you did
One night of pleasure, nine months of pain
'Coz when I'm feelin' down, every now and then
Like the Jackson 5 said, “I'll be there for you” 'coz
So just listen to your Daddy 'coz he tryin' to tell ya something
I know it's hard growing up 'coz I used to be a youngsta
D-A-D-D-Y, you can count on me
When I can't be there in the flesh, I'm there in the spirit
I'll make sure you get your props, you can call me pops
Got me smilin', again
My life is your life and your life is mine
People let me tell ya about my best friends
You need a shoulder to cry on and someone you can rely on
Brown eyes like Mom, with your Grandmother's nose
Daddy, don't take no mess
I got open ears when the world ain't tryin' to hear
'Coz when I'm feelin' down every now and then
And Daddy's little baby
'Coz when I'm feelin' down, every now and then
Every day is a struggle, when life is like a puzzle
Smilin', again you
'Coz I'm down with the children, all the way 'til the end
I'm tryna make an impression on the things that you stand for
Smilin', again you
I'ma do my damnest, to make sure you get some chances
Got me smilin' again
You got me smilin', again you
