When you were a little girl
I had dreams and I had plans for you
As a single father I knew
There was gonna be turbulance

Along the way
I did not know that so soon
I' d have to stand on the side
Watch you go through life

Without my guidance you see
I wanted to be there when you cry
I wanted to be there when you smile
I wanted to be there when you play

I wanted to be there all your life
I would say it' s wrong
She' d say it' s right
Words got spoken since

I live in a glass house
I didn' t want no stones to be thrown
I didn' t want no blows to be thrown
But I would hate to see my

Good girl go bad
Good girl go bad

The games we played
The rhymes you taught me
Everything we did together
Those were the best days of my life

I will always remember
The little girl you were once
I wanted to be there when you cry
I wanted to be there when you smile

I wanted to be there when you play
I wanted to be there all your life
I would say it' s right
She' d say it' s wrong

I would say it' s wrong
She' d say it' s right
Words got spoken since
I live in a glass house

I didn' t want no stones to be thrown
I didn' t want no blows to be thrown
But I would hate to see my

Good girl go bad
Good girl go bad
