"Walk a little slower, Daddy,"
said a child so small.
"I'm following in your footsteps
and I don't want to fall.Sometimes your steps are very fast,
sometimes they're hard to see;
so walk a little slower, Daddy,
for you are leading me.
Someday when I'm all grown up,
you're what I want to be;
then I will have a little child
who'll want to follow me.
And I would want to lead just right,
and know that I was true;
so walk a little slower, Daddy,
for I must follow you."
