The Father-Daughter Dance was only 2 weeks away
They asked her if she was planning to go
The only thing she could say was my daddy is not around
Heâs locked in a jail on the outskirts of town
I wish we could dance on that Saturday night
But Iâll have to turn it down cause my Daddy is not around.
The little girl wrote to the Sherriff
Her request was unusual
Would you be willing to put on a dance since my father cannot come to school?
My Daddy is not around
Heâs locked in your jail on the outskirts of town
I wish we could dance on that Saturday night
Please donât make me turn it down
Cause my Daddy is not around.
The dance was held at the prison
Her dad wore a shirt and tie
He told her, âYou look like a princess to me
May I have this dance tonight?â
And their feet never touched the ground
They forgot where they were on the outskirts of town
They were dancing together on a Saturday night
He spun her around and around
And their feet never touched the ground.
After the final song played and the school bus drove away
Alone in the dark, his heart broken in 2
Her Daddy began to pray, âDear Jesus, my girl needs her Dad around.
Not locked in a jail on the outskirts of town.
Then, we could dance every Saturday night.
I donât want to let her down.
Help me turn my life around âcause my girl needs her dad around.â
