The love between the two of us was dying 
And it got so bad I knew I had to leave 
But halfway down that high-way, 
As I turned around I saw 
My little daughter running after me 

Cryin' 
Daddy don't you walk so fast 
Daddy don't you walk so fast 
Daddy slow down some 
Coz your making me run 
Daddy don't you walk so fast 

It broke my heart to tell my little daughter 
That her daddy had to run and catch a train 
She had no way of knowing I was leaving home for good 
I turned around 
And there she was again 

Cryin' 
Daddy don't you walk so fast 
(My daughter cried) 
Daddy don't you walk so fast 
Daddy slow down some 
Coz your making me run 
Daddy don't you walk so fast 

If only for the sake of my sweet daughter 
I just had to turn back home right there and then 
And try to start a new life with the mother of my child 
I couldn't bare to hear those words again 
Coz she said 

Daddy don't you walk so fast 
(My daughter cried) 
Daddy don't you walk so fast 
Daddy slow down some 
Coz your making me run 
Daddy don't you walk so fast 

Won't you, 
Slow down some 
Coz your making me run 
Daddy don't you walk so fast
