[02:57.24][02:05.05][01:13.56][00:22.67]Just like you would with your daughter
[03:01.13][02:09.53][01:17.21][00:26.28]Cause everything you do or say

[00:38.29]Now when you got to her speak truthfully
[00:41.90]Be honest as you can be, from your heart
[00:44.81]You're in a situation, where ya losing patience
[00:48.43]Take some time and look her in the eye
[00:51.42]When you just can't find the words you want
[00:53.79]And it's hard to reach the point
[00:55.33]Where you both can understand
[00:57.91]Don't just tell the truth
[00:59.33]Tell the whole truth
[01:01.05]It'll make a better man outta you
[01:29.72]It doesn't matter if she's wearin
[01:33.38]A mini skirt or a business suit
[01:36.59]Whether she's 25 or 99
[01:39.79]Treat her the way your mama taught you to
