FISHERMAN’S DAUGHTER
(The Waifs)

I don't like gold and I don't like pearls
I'm just your regular West Australian fisherman's daughter
I'm a middle-class, folk-singing, guitar-playing girl

I ain't seen the world, no I've not travelled far
I'm saving dollars for a nineteen sixty two
Ruby red interior R series Valiant, mother of a car

I'm a country girl and I’m in a city world pulling up
Pulling over, man, I'm gonna let you through
I'm living in the left-hand lane of my city
Slow down so I can walk this highway with you
Slow down, let me walk it with you

Slow down
We all gotta slow down
Man, I wanna walk that highway with you
With you, you, you

No not yet married, I got no ring on my hand
I got my heart beating for this sweet-loving
Second-hand dealing boy
I'm gonna love him the best way I can - I know I can

I'm a country girl in a city world pulling down
Pulling over, man, I'm gonna let you through
I'm living in the left-hand lane of my city
Slow down so I can walk this highway with you
Slow down, let me walk it with you

I don't like gold and I don't like pearls
I'm just your regular West Australian fisherman's daughter
I'm a middle-class, folk-singing, guitar-playing girl
