Daddy-o, daddy-o when I close my eyes
There's a cyclone there and I want to rise
An electric train to a long lost world
To a land of a thousand dancing girls
Come to me, my daddy-o
Take me where I want to go
To the world I left behind
To the Coney Island line
Oh daddy-o, daddy-o
Daddy tell me the tale that the captain told
When the lightning flashed and the thunder rolled
We will all be safe, we will be there soon
We will all have fun when we reach the moon
Come to me, my daddy-o
Take me where I want to go
To the moon I left behind
Down the Coney Island line
Oh daddy-o, daddy-o
Daddy-o, daddy-o, can you make me feel
Like the way I did on the Wonder Wheel
Can you love me now as you loved me then
Can you dream that parachute dream again
Come to me, my daddy-o
Take me where I want to go
To the dream I left behind
Down the Coney Island line
Come to me, my daddy-o
Take me where I want to go
To the world I left behind
To the Coney Island line
Oh daddy-o, daddy-o
Oh daddy-o, daddy-o
FROM THE ALBUM: LITTLE WILD ONE - SEPTEMBER 9th, 2008
In a career that spans over fifteen years, Joan has proven to be an artistically restless yet consistently enthralling performer. In 2002, she cemented her reputation as a top tier soul singer with an incredible turn in the acclaimed documentary film 'Standing in the Shadows of Motown,' followed by a tour with legendary Motown backing band The Funk Brothers. In 2003, Osborne toured with the Dixie Chicks and then surprised and wowed audiences touring throughout America for two years as the lead singer for The Dead. In 2007, she graced the stage of the Grand Ole Opry. Osborne loves to sing and perform in many different genres, but she comes back to her soulful rock roots on 'Little Wild One,' her fall release that reunites her Grammy All-Star team of Rick Chertoff and Rob Hyman and Eric Bazilian of The Hooters. The team last worked together on Osborne's breakthrough, debut album 'Relish,' which sold five million copies worldwide and yielded the smash hit "One Of Us" as well as scoring six Grammy nominations.
