Daddy Lessons (Duet)

[Intro: Beyoncé & The Chicks]

Texas, Texas, Texas, Texas

[Verse 1: Beyoncé]

Came into this world, daddy's little girl

And daddy made a soldier out of me

Oh, oh, oh

And daddy made me dance and daddy held my hand

And daddy liked his whiskey with his tea

[Pre-Chorus 1: Beyoncé & The Chicks]

We rode motorcycles

Blackjack, classic vinyl

Tough girl is what I had to be

He said, "Take care of your mother

Watch out for your sister"

That's when daddy looked at me

[Chorus: Beyoncé & The Chicks]

With his gun and his head held high, he told me not to cry

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

With his right hand on his rifle, he swore it on the Bible

My daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

He held me in his arms and he taught me to be strong

He told me when he's gone, "Here's what you do

When trouble comes to town and men like me come around"

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

(Texas)

[Verse 2: Beyoncé & The Chicks]

Daddy made me fight, it wasn't always right

But he said, "Girl, it's your second amendment"

Oh, oh, oh

He always played it cool, but daddy was no fool

And right before he died he said, "Remember..."

Oh, oh, oh

[Pre-Chorus 2: The Chicks]

He said, "Take care of your mother

Watch out for your sister"

And that's when daddy looked at me

[Chorus: Beyoncé & The Chicks]

With his gun, with his head held high, he told me not to cry

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

With his right hand on his rifle, he swore it on the Bible

My daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

'Cause he held me in his arms and he taught me to be strong

And he told me when he's gone, "Here's what you do

When trouble comes to town and men like me come around"

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, oh, oh

Hey

Texas

Texas

Ooh, ooh, oh

[Post-Chorus: Beyoncé]

I think, I think, I think, I think

This your song, this your song!

Put your hands together now

[Verse 3: Beyoncé & The Chicks]

They sound tired, but they don't sound Haggard

They got money, but they don't have Cash

They got Junior, but they don't have Hank

I think, I think, I think, I think

[Outro: Beyoncé & The Chicks]

My daddy warned me about men like you

He said, "Baby girl, he's playing you, he's playing you"

My daddy warned me about men like you

He said, "Baby girl, he's playing you, he's playing you

(He's playing you)

'Cause when trouble comes in town and men like me come around"

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

"Cause when trouble comes to town and men like me come around"

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

[Skit: The Chicks & Beyoncé]

(Good job, B, I hope you, uh, secretly recorded that. That's 'cause we're all sweating. We warm, we loose, we're like "oh, it's not recording today. We're good. That's how it works.)
