Every time my baby and I have a quarrel I swear I won't give in Then my baby starts to smile at me And I know, I know I just can't win When my little girl is smiling There's nothing more I can say, oh I see those big bright eyes and then I realize That girl is goin' to get her way Oh, let me tell you now, when my little girl is smiling I can't stay mad at her for long, oh Why should I want to fight when I can hold her tight? I just don't care who's right or wrong Let me tell you now, when my little girl is smiling It's the greatest thrill there can be, oh She gets her way, it's true, but I know I won't be blue As long as she just smiles for me
