Smilin' Lyrics


You got me smilin', again you
Got me smilin' again
Smilin', again you
Got me smilin', again
One night of pleasure, nine months of pain
Three days later and that's when you came
Two arms, two legs, ten fingers, ten toes
Brown eyes like Mom, with your Grandmother's nose
Even though you're Momma's baby
And Daddy's little baby
My love is unconditional to one of us is Swayze
Day or night, roll the light, no matter what you do
Like the Jackson 5 said, “I'll be there for you” 'coz
My life is your life and your life is mine
Through thick and thin I'm your friend 'til the end of time
I'll make sure you get your props, you can call me pops
And anything you need, I'll pull it out of the stops
Even though we're not together like we used to be

D-A-D-D-Y, you can count on me
'Coz when I'm feelin' down every now and then
I take a look into your eyes and I smile again
You got me smilin', again you
Got me smilin' again
Smilin', again you
Got me smilin', again
Forget about Batman, Superman and the Power Rangers
'Coz I'ma be your hero if you ever in some danger
This ain't the Huckstables and my name ain't Cliff
No matter how old you get, you could get that ass whipped
Daddy, don't take no mess
And I ain't gone settle for nothing less than your very best
When I do what I do 'coz you did what you did
It's 'coz I ain't the kind of father that be raising no dumb ass kids
You gosta be a leader, it's my responsibility to teach ya
Right from wrong and make decisions of your own
I never said that I was perfect but I know you're worth it so
I'ma do my damnest, to make sure you get some chances
So just listen to your Daddy 'coz he tryin' to tell ya something
And don't let nobody tell ya, I don't love ya 'coz they frontin'
'Coz when I'm feelin' down, every now and then
I take a look into your eyes and I smile again
You got me smilin', again you
Got me smilin' again
Smilin', again you
Got me smilin', again
You got me smilin'
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
You got me smilin'
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Every day is a struggle, when life is like a puzzle
That we gotta put together, together so and ever
You need a shoulder to cry on and someone you can rely on
Your Daddy's home
I'm tryin' to build a foundation on which you could stand
When you's a grown woman and you's a grown man
I got open ears when the world ain't tryin' to hear
When I can't be there in the flesh, I'm there in the spirit
I'm tryna make an impression on the things that you stand for
The knowledge that I give, you could teach your kids
I know it's hard growing up 'coz I used to be a youngsta
So we gon' work as a team
So the [incomprehensible] don't take ya under
People let me tell ya about my best friends
'Coz I'm down with the children, all the way 'til the end
'Coz when I'm feelin' down, every now and then
I take a look into they eyes and I smile again
You got me smilin', again you
Got me smilin' again
Smilin', again you
Got me smilin', again
You got me smilin', again you
Got me smilin' again
Smilin', again you
Got me smilin', again

Coolio (born Artis Leon Ivey, Jr. on August 1, 1963 in Compton, California) is an American rapper and actor whose G-Funk sounding beats and funky flow make listening very pleasant. Coolio started his career as a member of the rap group, WC And The Maad Circle.

In 1994, Coolio released his debut album It Takes a Thief which featured the hugely successful singles, Fantastic Voyage and It Takes a Thief. In 1995 Coolio released his second and most successful album Gangsta's Paradise, which went 4X Platinum and featured the mega hit, Gangsta's Paradise and the popular party track, Sumpin New. The album 'Gangsta's Paradise" is considered by some to be a classic west coast Gangsta rap album, thanks to songs like Exercise Yo Game and Geto Highlites. His G-Funk sounding beats and soulful flow softens the typically edgy effect of rap. His hit song "Gangsta's Paradise" combined singing with rap. Coolio's recordings also appeared on the soundtracks to Clueless (1995) and Dangerous Minds (1995).

However, Coolio's next few albums, 1997's My Soul, 2002's El Cool Magnifico and 2006's Return Of The Gangsta, failed to live up to the success of his first two albums.

In 2009 he released the album From the Bottom 2 the Top. He also took part in the reality TV show "Celebrity Big Brother" in the UK, in which he placed third. He returned to Big Brother UK in 2010 to take part in Ultimate Big Brother - the last ever series of the reality show
