Видео: Nanci Griffith - Daddy Said

Oh, I used to wish I was a hard line taker ... and they`d say,
"Six to one a half dozen`ll break her",
`till I fell in love with a young man who sang the blues
Oh, bless my daddy, he warned me well
He`d whisper in my ear and say, "Now look out, gal ...
there`s always a ne`er do well gonna call you the fool"

(chorus)
He said, "you`ll never learn to fish on a borrowed line
you`ll never learn to write if you`re walkin` `round cryin`
and it`s a pity that you`re lover died young, but ...
you`ll never get tired of livin` alone".
So, now I dream of the lover that I don`t know
It`s safer this way `cuz I don`t have to go ... oh, and he
won`t come ... so nobody goes away
Sometimes I wish for the warmth of his hand
take a look in these eyes and understand
I`m just a little too old to be a-learnin` the rules of the game

(repeat chorus)

Oh, maybe I could take him to Mexico
We`d kick our heels in the warm cloudy gulf
He`d sing a song about the weather in the Poconos;
this lover that I don`t know
Then two hearts would pound `stead of one in the night
I`d learn to fish with my own line
catch my dream and hope that line would hold

(repeat chorus)

No, I never get tired of livin` alone
Sometimes my feet get cold ... when I`m livin` alone ...
