I live in a big white house on Pennsylvania Avenue. I always hide behind the desk in Daddy's den When I play hide and seek with Secret Service Men. This was going through my head today when I heard that Caroline (Kennedy) would like to seek Hillary Clinton's Senate seat... but this is all I could remember. I still picture her as a little girl riding a pony, and standing solemnly watching her Daddy's casket going by. |

05 Jan 09 - 09:15 PM (#2532530) Subject: Lyr Add: MY DADDY IS PRESIDENT From: Jim Dixon Here's my transcription from the YouTube "video": ^^ MY DADDY IS PRESIDENT (David J De Noon, Emanuel Vardi*) My daddy is President. What does your daddy do? I live in a big white house on Pennsylvania Avenue. I always hide behind the desk in Daddy's den When I play hide-and-seek with Secret Service men. My daddy is President. We had a busy day. I'm learning the alphabet: A-B-C-D-J-F-K. I don't play house; I play the game of government 'Cause my daddy is the President. At Daddy's first press conf'rence, I made news Wearing mommy's high-heel shoes; And ev'ry time I'm able, I'm under the conf'rence table. My daddy is President. We make a happy pair. I go for my pony rides. He rides in his rocking chair. No matter what I do, it makes a news event, 'Cause my daddy is the President. [*Authorship credit from ASCAP. As sung by Little Jo Ann, 1962.] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E1D034rbdbw |

20 Jan 09 - 11:44 PM (#2544681) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: My Daddy is President From: GUEST,NJ Remembers! I remember this much of the song from when I was young: My Daddy is President. What does your Daddy do? We live in a big white house On Pennsylvania Avenue. When we play Hide 'n Seek, it's with Secret Service men 'Cause my Daddy's the Pesident. I remember it playing on the radio, and it seems to me that it played through twice, with an interlude between two verses, but I can't recall any of the second verse (which replaced the "Hide 'n Seek" part.) I also still remember the tune! |

31 Jan 09 - 02:36 PM (#2553848) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: My Daddy Is President From: GUEST ha! My father wrote this song. I sang it on Play Your Hunch where a panel hosted by Merv Griffin chose the real singer (not me, but my best friend Jo Ann Morse) after we mouthed the words while the recording played. I can still sing the whole thing, but you can hear it as one person said, clear as a bell, on the YouTube link that still has it up. My father, by the way, is still very much alive and kicking at age 91, but i have lost track of Jo Ann. I believe Dave DaNoon (sp?) wrote the lyrics. |
