Take your time So they say and that's probably The best way to be, but what about Those who are fathers and What about their daughters? I will promise to do my very best To do my duty For God and my country Hey but I'm just human after all I will promise not to smoke too much and I will promise not to party Too hard, too hard, too hard (It's too hard) Did you ever bang on a xylophone That took you everywhere from home? Well I did, well I've tried Life is like a ball of beauty that Makes you wanna just cry, then you die I will promise to go outta my way To do the right thing from now on (Believe me, baby) There comes a time in every man's life When he's gotta take hold of the hand That ain't his but it is Take your time, so they say, and that's Gotta be the best way, but what about Those who are fathers and What about the others? I know that you don't know a stranger But I'm no stranger than the rest And I'm no stranger to you Take your time they say it's all around And I think I'd say I know Just where that I am bound There comes a time in every man's life When he's gotta hold tight To the heart of the matter at hand So take your time, baby girl Cause that's, that's the best of all (One day you'll believe me, baby) I will promise to do my very best To do my very best for you And that won't be Too hard, too hard, too hard
