My Father's Daughter - Dolly Parton&Jewel
She stepped off of the boat
to see flowers in his hands
The man she would marry was
as hard as the mountains
She had his children in a one room log cabin
Soon I'd be another star in
this family's constellation
In the land of the midnight sun
Searching for gold
I am my father's daughter
He has his mother's eyes
I am the product of their sacrifice
I am the accumulation of
the dreams of generations
And their stories live in me like holy water
I am my father's daughter
My father raised me in a one room log cabin
And he sang for me the songs
his mother sang for him
And honkey-tonks, and empty bars, just me and him
And that old guitar
He passed on a legacy wrapped up in a melody
That I carry on
Searching for gold
I am my father's daughter
I have my Gramma's eyes
I am the product of their sacrifice
I am the accumulation of
the dreams of generations
And their stories live in me like holy water
I am my father's daughter
And every time I step on stage
And the music finds me
I don't need gold to remind me
That I am my father's daughter
I have my Grandma's eyes
I am the product of such sacrifice
I am the accumulation of
the dreams of generations
And their stories live in me like holy water
I am my father's daughter
Oh, I am my father's daughter
