You gotta give it to me, Daddy, ev'ry night
Or you can't kiss Mama at all (Yeah, sure, Baby)
You gotta give it to me, Daddy, treat me right
I won't be home when you call (Yeah, yeah)

Told me, Daddy, and I understood
You like me best 'cause I do it so good (I sure do)
Now, give it to me, Daddy, ev'ry night
I won't be home when you call (Yes, Baby, ev'ry night)

(Play it, boys, now play it)
(Instrumental Break)

Give it to me, Daddy, ev'ry night
Or don't have it at all (Yes, Ma'am)
Give it to me, Daddy, ev'ry night
I wanna teach you to drive (Now, hold it, Honey, hold it)

Come on, Daddy, give me enough
My own sweet, Daddy, don't be so rough (Oh, yes)
Give it to me, Daddy, ev'ry night
I won't wait at home when you call (Oh, Honey, it's good to go))

(Instrumental Break)

Give it to me, Daddy, ev'ry night
I won't want it at all (Now, here it is, Honey, take it)
Give it to me, Daddy, sev'ral times a night
I won't have it at all (Yeah, Honey, sev'ral times)

You can't come home on the shelf
I'm done tired of sleepin' by myself
Now give it to me, Daddy, ev'ry night
I won't be home when you call (Take it all, Honey, take it all)
