Daddy Said - Nanci Griffith
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
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
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
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
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
No I never get tired of livin alone
Sometimes my feet get cold
When I'm livin' alone
