"Walk a little clearer Daddy,"
said the little girl one day
"I'm following in your footsteps,
and I need to know the way."
"Sometimes your steps are very plain,
but sometimes, they are hard to see
So, walk a little clearer Daddy,
cause you are leading me."
"I know that you walked this way,
just a few years ago,
and what you did along the way,
I would really like to know."
"Cause someday I'll be tempted,
and I won't know what to do,
so, walk a little clearer Daddy,
so you can help me through."
"Someday when I'm all grown-up,
you are like what I want to be,
then maybe I'll have a little one
who will want to follow me."
"And I want to lead them right,
and help them to be true,
so, walk a little clearer, Daddy
cause we are following you."
