lyrics

MOTHER’S DAUGHTER

colt legs swaying in a cotton dress
barefoot on the road where they misspelled independence
we’re doing what the sign says “dance”
dreaming bout that future big romance

i’m my mother’s daughter
wild child of the summer
i’m my mother’s daughter
old soul shittalker

we tattoo on her sage advice like
“you can have it all just not at the same time”
and “absence makes the heart grow, yes
fonder of someone else”
and “sing while you work”
la la la la
“sing while you work”
la la la la la la (come strawberry season)

i’m my mother’s daughter
wild child of the summer
i’m my mother’s daughter
fire drawn to the water

throw a little salt over your shoulder
love is a gift, love is spell you cast
love can spoil, but love can last
even when you walk away
love when you walk away
and sing while you work
la la la la
