Template:My Father's Daughter

(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 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 her 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

(Dolly Parton)

My father raised me in an old log cabin

And he sang for me the songs his mother sang to him

In honky-tonks, and empty bars, just me and him

And that old guitar

He passed on a legacy wrapped up in a melody

And I carry on

Searching for gold

(Jewel & Dolly Parton)

I am my father's daughter

I have his eyes

I am the product of his 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

(Jewel)

And every time I step on stage

(Dolly Parton)

And the music finds me

(Jewel & Dolly Parton)

I don't need gold to remind me

(Jewel)

I am my father's daughter

I have my Grandma's eyes

I am the product of such sacrifice

(Jewel & Dolly Parton)

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
