Chorus 1: While tearing off a game of golf
I may make a play for the caddy
But when I do, I don’t follow through
‘Cause my heart belongs to Daddy
If I invite a boy some night to dine on my fine finnan haddie
I just adore his asking for more but my heart belongs to Daddy

Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy so I simply couldn’t be bad
Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, dad
So I want to warn you laddie tho’ I know you’re perfectly swell
That my heart belongs to Daddy
‘Cause my daddy, he treats me so well

Chorus 2: St. Patrick’s Day although I may
Be seen wearing green with a paddie
I’m always sharp when playing the harp
‘Cause my heart belongs to Daddy
Though other dames at football games
May long for a strong undergraddie
I never dream of making the team
‘Cause my heart belongs to Daddy

Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy so I simply couldn’t be bad
Yes, my heart belongs to Daddy
Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, dad
So I want to warn you laddie tho’ I simply hate to be frank
That I can’t be mean to Daddy
‘Cause my da-da-da, daddy might spank
