What Do You Do lyrics by Barbara Fairchild

Verse 1
The door bell rang, I answered, I thought no one was there
I heard a voice looked down to see a child was standing there
She looked so sad and puzzled and then she said to me
„I’m here to ask a question, won’t you answer it for me?”

Chorus
„What do you do to make my daddy love you?
Do you put your arms around his neck and kiss his cheek like I do?
Do you take him by the hand and ask him to play?
This doesn’t work for me anymore, you must have another way”

Verse 2
So I knelt down beside her and held her little hand
I tried my best to find the words that she might understand
With tear filled eyes she listened to what I had to say
And with these words still on her lips she turned and walked away

Chorus
„What do you do to make my daddy love you?
Do you put your arms around his neck and kiss his cheek like I do?
Do you take him by the hand and ask him to play?
This doesn’t work for me anymore, you must have another way
What do you do to make my daddy love you?”
