Text: Dottie West. Mommy Can I Still Call Him Daddy.

Come here my precious little boy
Mommy loves you so
We've got big things to talk about
Some things you have to know

And though you're only four years old
I know you understand
That from now on you've got to be
Mommy's little man

Your daddy left for good today
But we'll make it just the same
And pretty soon we'll both forget
We even wear his name

Please mommy, can I still call him daddy?
I know he's treated us so bad
Please mommy, can I still call him daddy?
For he's the only daddy I ever had

Now sweetheart, you must forget
'Cause he doesn't love you like before
But knowin' that he doesn't care
Just makes mommy love you more

So come on now and let's be big and strong
And please, please don't cry
'Cause he doesn't deserve your tears
'Cause when he left he didn't even say goodbye

Please mommy, can I still call him daddy?
I know he's treated us so bad
Please mommy, can I still call him daddy?
For he's the only daddy I ever had
