LYRICS

You bought my first guitar, and taught me how to bait a hook,
Got ice cream after every game, even when I didn't play good
You caught me lying once and made damn sure I learned my lesson
But you held me when I cried and told me all 'bout doggie heaven

Every spring you'd twirl me round that little high school gym
I'd look around so proud to show you off to my friends

Dad I hope you know that I'm still standing on your shoes
Cause there ain't ever been a day that I ain't needed you
In this world that won't stop spinning, you don't let go of my hand
Took growing up to finally understand
The beauty of the Daddy Daughter Dance

If that boy don't get my door I hear you preaching in my mind
Girl pay for your own drink and leave, Honey he ain't worth the time
And those nights we're sipping whiskey talking life and good cigars
I look at you and know it's gon' be hard
To find someone that's ever gon' be half the man you are

Dad I hope you know that I'm still standing on your shoes
Cause there ain't ever been a day that I ain't needed you
In this world that won't stop spinning, you don't let go of my hand
Took growing up to finally understand
The beauty of the Daddy Daughter Dance

One day my name will change from a Ms. to a Mrs.
We'll both be fighting tears, singing "Butterfly Kisses"
In the center of that circle, smiling cause we know
This dance started a long time ago

Dad I hope you know I'll still be standing on your shoes
Cause there won't ever be a day that I ain't needing you
In this world that won't stop spinning, you don't let go of my hand
Took growing up to finally understand
the beauty of a father's love and
The Daddy Daughter Dance

Sobbing because it's not just so wholesome but personally knowing your family makes it that much sweeter! Love you 🥹

[MickeyRosa-]

This is the Daddy I want my kids to have.
This is the Father I didn't have.

[ronnycox]

At almost 75 years I still remember my two girls standing on my feet as we danced around the room...Blair is almost 45 and Daina is 39...such wonderful memories for this 'ole man!

[KellanMarso-juve]

How is she not balling during this I was tearing up watching it.😢

As a father to 4 and 7 year old girls and taking my oldest to our first daddy/daughter dance last year, this songs hits. You have a great daddy!

[asmrcraftofficial]

I’m playing this for my father-daughter dance at my wedding. He may not be here anymore but I’ll be holding his picture dancing as if I’m being taught to dance by him again.

[jadencrouser]

[EthanHaug]

I’ve been crying for the last three hours, I hope one day I’ll be half the man your daddy is, and half the man my daddy is. I got a long way to go

[wiro.perera]

Not everyone is fortunate to have an amazing dad, but your incredible songwriting captures that love so beautifully through the lyrics. It's truly a piece of art. I hope to be an amazing dad someday as well. Thank you for sharing!

[bryantbodnar]

Was playing a game with my sister where we were trying to make each other cry with different country songs, and she told me to play this one. She won the game. Thank you for this song. Your voice is so pretty and perfect for singing.

[krisklinge]

Been going to the Daddy Daughter dance with my oldest for the past 7 years and about to start with my youngest. This song absolutely needs to become the standard final slow dance of every Daddy Daughter Dance in the country. Thank you for putting to song what every daughter and father feel about this amazing tradition. <3

[rodneybeckner]

My daughter dedicated this song to me. What a beautiful picture she paints... Thank you Sunshine, Dad

[kristamorrow]

This has me crying bc my dad and I were separated for 18 years when I was 2 and now I’m 23 so I never got the daddy daughter dances but just growing closer to my dad these last couple years has been nothing but a true blessing

[Luna_NightingaLe]

I cried so hard… I have a really close relationship with my dad… and this hits right at home. ❤️

[saayehsiahmakoun]

a beautiful voice lead by what you feel in your heart is more of what we need. i think you got me in to country music 😭❤️

[vintageyellow]

As a father of a six-year-old daughter, I work every day and trying to be as good as daddy as I can be. I was fortunate to have a great father like you did and all I hope is that I can be half as good as he was for my daughter.your song is beautiful and inspired, and I think you are inspiring. Please keep the writing up and singing. Do you have a beautiful voice that I guarantee your father is so proud of.
