Ev'ry 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
I see those big bright eyes
And then I realize
That girl is gonna get her way.

When my little girl is smiling
I can't stay mad at her for long
Why should I want to fight
When I can hold her tight?
I just don't care who's right or wrong.

Mmmm, let me tell you now
When my little girl is smiling
It's the greatest thrill there can be
She gets her way it's true
But I know I won't be blue
As long as she just smiles for me.
She gets her way it's true
But I know I won't be blue
As long as she just smiles for me
Mmmm
When my little girl is smiling
When my little girl is smiling
When my little girl is smiling.
