He Adidn't have to Ewake up
BHe'd been up all Enight
Lying Athere in bed Elistening
To his Bnew born baby C#mcryB
He Amakes a pot of Ecoffee
He splashes Bwater on his C#mface
His Awife gives him a Ekiss and says
It gonna Bbe EOK
It won't Abe like Bthis for Elong
One Aday we'll look back Blaugh'n
At the G#mweek we brought her C#mhomeB
This Aphase is gonna fly E/G#by
So Bbaby Cdimjust hold C#monB

Four years Alater 'bout four Ethirty

And when he Adrops her off at Epre-school
She's Bclinging to his C#mlegB
The Ateacher peels her Eoff of him
He Bsays what can I C#mdo
She Asays now don't you Eworry
This will only Blast a week or Etwo
It won't Abe like Bthis for Elong
One day Asoon you'll drop her Boff
