Daughter (Album Version) - Loudon Wainwright III

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

Everything she takes she takes apart

That's my daughter in the water

Every time she fell I caught her

Every time she fell

And that's my daughter in the water

I lost every time I fought her

Yeah I lost every time

Every time she blinks she'd strike somebody blind

Everything she thinks blows her tiny mind

That's my daughter in the water

Who'd have ever thought her

Who'd have ever thought

That's my daughter in the water

I lost every time I fought her

Yeah I lost every time
