[Verse 1] You’re top man on scene You don’t think life comes   in between But hey she’s just seventeen She feels that she’s a worldly girl But man you’ve been around the world She is just some worried Daddy’s girl [Chorus] Even though there’s nothing I can say To cheat you and nature any way Let her down easy Her heart is on a dime     Let her down easy And she’ll grow up     in time [Verse 2] In her strawberry eyes The way she sees you   signifies That she’s susceptible to your  velvet lies   But if you must lay her down May a butterscotch glow be her  dressing gown And please do not lead her on when on when you leave town [Chorus] Even though there’s nothing I can say To cheat you and nature any way Let her down easy Her heart is on the line     Let her down easy And you’ll grow up in time [Verse 3] She’s a woman now With a daughter to   make her proud In her crayon world of   paper clouds She still remembers you The first boy that she   gave it to And she laughs at how    little then she knew [Chorus] Even though there’s nothing I can say To cheat you and nature any way Let her down easy Her heart is on a dime           Let her down easy And she’ll grow up  in time Whoa in time
