Young Dubliners One And Only
Didn't happen over night, its been happening all her
life Can't tell her friends at school. Their remarks
are so cruel.
Why does he treat her so, and does her mother know
Still daddys little girl. All smiles and baby curls
Her bedrooms open wide / there's nowhere she can hide
Her mind leaves like a bird / she only remembers his
words
CHORUS
You told me, you own me
I'll be your one and only
You told me, you own me
I'll be your one and only
Tonight she'll put things right. Tonight she'll end
this fight
Things cannot stay the same. This families gone insane
she'd like to talk to him. Ask him to stop but then
He just looks down and smiles. Gets his strength in
denial
Tonight she'll take the power / tonight's his final
hour
One shot and see him fall / now he can't hurt her
anymore
REPEAT CHORUS
Father says everything will be allright and
Mother says imaginations running wild and
Father says lets keep this thing to ourselves and
Mother says it never happened You know it happened
REPEAT CHORUS
