Gone Daddy Gone

(album: Violent Femmes - 1982)

Beautiful girl, lovely dress
High school smiles, oh yes
Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Where she is now I can only guess

'Cause it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone away

When I see you, eyes will turn blue
When I see you, thousand eyes turning blue

'Cause it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone away

Tell by the way that you switch and walk
I can see by the way that you baby-talk
I can know by the way you treat your man
I can love you, baby, 'til it's a-cryin...

'Cause it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone
Yeah, it's gone, daddy, gone your love is gone away

Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Fifteen smiles, oh, yes
Beautiful girl, lovely dress
Where she is now, I can only guess 'cause it's...
