How do you do, Lucy
You sure been hard to find
I heard you had a daughter
Six years old and
I just can't keep from cry'n'
Six years Lucy, Lord have mercy
That's a long time, that's a long time
Is she pretty, has she grown
Does she sleep well in a room of her own
Can I see her
Does she know that I'm her daddy, I'm her daddy
Did you give her one of my pictures
Does she carry yeh, yeh, picture with her
Does she show it to the baby sitter, and say
See that man, that's my daddy, that's my daddy
You should ‘a told me, Lucy, You should ‘a told me, Lucy
Yeh, you should ‘a told me, Lucy
Oh, Lucy Oh, Lucy Oh, Lucy Oh, Lucy
You should ‘a told me Lucy
