My little girl... that once was ten...
way back... I can't remember when...
for she's always been...our baby girl...
with a happy smile.. a wave... and a curl...
with her song... and her dance...
than her flirty glance...
in her world of boys...
now there's no more toys...
for all of sudden... wham!
she's all grown up.. and man...
I sit here and miss her.. now today...
for she's off in the NAVY... far away...
I sit here loving and waiting too...
for My little Sailor... in Navy Blues.
