Thank Heaven for Little Girls Lyrics

(Verse)
Each time I see a little girl
Or five or six or seven
I can't resist a joyous urge
To smile and say

(Chorus)
Thank heaven for little girls
For little girls get bigger every day
Thank heaven for little girls
They grow up in the most delightful way
That little smile so helpless and appealing
One day she’ll flash and send you crashing through the ceiling
Thank heaven for little girls
Thank heaven for them all, no matter where, no matter who
Without them, what would little boys do?
Thank heaven
Thank heaven
Thank heaven for little girls

That little smile so helpless and appealing
One day she'll flash and send you crashing through the ceiling
Thank heaven for little girls
Thank heaven for them all, no matter where, no matter who
Without them, what would little boys do?
Thank heaven
Thank heaven
Thank heaven for little girls

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
