Little Girl Lyrics - Reba Mcentire

(kendal franceschi, quentin powers) 

Daddy used to tell me 

If I ran too fast I'd fall and hurt myself 

But the ice cream man would ring his bell 

And I'd get there before anyone else 

I'd see a puppy in the window 

And I'd run and press my face against the pane 

And daddy'd say slow down girl 

After all these years I guess nothing has changed

Chorus: 

That little girl I knew 

Ran after you 

But she fell this time 

And broke her heart in two 

Hey that's just like a little girl I knew 

Back home there stands an old house 

With a picket fence beneath a big oak tree 

I can almost see the backyard 

And a little girl with freckles 

That was me 

Photos 

And there were dreams of toys and storybooks and 

Lord it seemed I wanted them so bad 

Now 20 years have come and gone 

And I'm still chasing things that I can't have 

Repeat chorus 

Yes, I'm still that little girl 

Daddy I still haven't slowed down yet
