A Father's Note
There once was a girl who was varied
Whose teenage moods could be scary
The truth of it was
She's awesome because
Like a woman, she herself carried
I have many children, it's true
But those boys won't do what you'll do
Not 'cause you're a girl
You'll change the world
That's how much I believe in you
You want to grow up right away
I want my sweet lady to stay
But I also want you
To do what you'll do
Once we know you won't lose your way
You'll sing your life's very own tune
That will happen so very soon
On that day I'll cry
A tear from my eye
But for others t'will be a boon
