Don't Blame Your Daughter lyrics

Don't blame your daughter

that's just sentimental

and don't blame your mom

for all that you've done wrong

Your dad is not guilty

you came out a little faulty

and the factory closed

so you can't hold them liable

You come from an island,

you're cutting diamonds

with a rubbery knife

Your autograph is worthless

so don't send me letters

and don't mail me cash

'cause your money is no good

What's left in your matress

is holes and lack of love left

some hair from a horse,

and none of it is yours, man

You come from an island,

you're cutting diamonds

with a rubbery knife

And the song you sing today

wasn't always in your head,

the words you tryin' to say

are the ones you shouldn't 've said

they're glistenin' like diamonds,

go out and find' em

but don't blame your daughter

Read me your tombstone,

tell me you're sorry, fax me your will,

you owe me something still

Blood is like water

the bath that you poured me

has drained and it's gone,

don't blame it on your son

And the song you sing today

wasn't always in your head,

the words you tryin' to say

are the ones you shouldn't 've said

they're glistening like diamonds,

go out and find'em

The world is full of diamonds

go out and find'em

but don't blame your daughter
