You know everyone in the world, but you feel alone
Sabes a todos en el mundo, pero te sientes solo
Daddy won't let you weep, daddy won't let you ache
Papá no te deja llorar, papá no te deja doler
Daddy gives you as much as you can take
Papá te da lo que puedas aguantar
Aha, sha-la. Aha sha-la
Aha, sha‑la. Aha sha‑la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Papá va a pagar por tu coche averiado
A little uptight, you're a baby's fist
Un poco tenso, eres como un puño de bebé
Butterfly kisses up an' down your wrist
Besos de mariposa arriba y abajo de tu muñeca
When you see daddy comin', you're lickin' your lips
Cuando ves a papá llegando, te estás lamiendo los labios
Nails bitten down to the quick
Uñas mordidas hasta el pulso
Aha, sha-la, Aha sha-la
Aha, sha‑la, Aha sha‑la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Papá va a pagar por tu coche averiado
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Papá va a pagar por tu coche averiado
You've got a head full of traffic, you're a siren's song
Tienes la cabeza llena de tráfico, eres la canción de la sirena
You cry for Mama, and Daddy's right along
Llora por Mamá, y Papá está justo ahí
He gives you the keys to a flamin' car
Él te da las llaves de un coche flamante
Daddy's with you wherever you are
Papá está contigo donde sea
Daddy's a comfort, Daddy's your best friend
Papá es un consuelo, Papá es tu mejor amigo
Daddy'll hold your hand right up to the end
Papá te sostendrá la mano hasta el final
Aha, sha-la, Aha sha-la
Aha, sha‑la, Aha sha‑la
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Papá va a pagar por tu coche averiado
Daddy's gonna pay for your crashed car
Papá va a pagar por tu coche averiado
