Nikki was cool
She made her own rules
Planned out her life
While sitting in school
Dreamed of the day
When she turned away
And all off her friends would be proud
So she waited alone
Left a note by the phone
She just couldn't wait
And she couldn't have known
See, her daddy was ill
He kept the secret until
Yesterday morning
But Nikki was gone
Is there any justice
for an angel with a dirty face?
She's so helpless
'Cause she don't know her fate
Is there any justice
for an angel with a dirty face?
Daddy's restless
Hope she won't be late
Time went by fast
Since she was home last
With the day growing nearer
When her daddy would pass
It started two weeks before
Show him how much I've grown
But she didn't know then
What was happening at home
Is there any justice
for anyone with an angel with dirty face?
She's so helpless
'Cause she don't know her fate
Is there any justice
for an angel with a dirty face?
Daddy's restless, oh-oh-oh
'Cause he loved his daughter like he oughta, didn't he?
And she loved her daddy, loved him madly, didn't she? Yeah
So everyone on the outside pray
Don't be late, don't be late, don't be late!
