Daughter Lyrics

Loudon Wainwright Daughter

Everything she sees, She says she wants
Everything she wants, I see she gets

That's my daughter in the water, Everything she owns I bought her
Everything she owns

That's my daughter in the water, Everything she knows I taught her
Everything she knows

Everything I say, She takes to heart
Every time she takes, She takes apart

That's my daughter in the water, Every time she fell I caught her
Every time she fell

That's my daughter in the water, I lost every time I fought her
Yeah I lost every time

(Instrumental)

Every time she blinks, She strikes somebody blind
Every time she thinks, Blows her tiny mind

That's my daughter in the water, Who'd've ever thought her
Who'd've ever thought

That's my daughter in the water, I lost every time I fought her
Yeah I lost every time
