MY FATHERS DAUGHTER (BY JEWEL FT. DOLLY PARTON) LYRICS

Writer(s): Lisa Carver, Jewel Kilcher
Singer(s): Jewel ft. Dolly Parton

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

I am my father's daughter

Oh, I am my father's daughter
