Lyrics

I am the youngest daughter
I am the baby girl
I am my mothers pleasure
I am my daddy's pearl

We are rolling in the rambler
On an early winters afternoon
And I got my daddy to myself
Soak it up and let the sun shine through

He's taking me to daddy's water
He's taking my picture there
I'm smiling
standing on the stony shore
Of daddy's water
The water

Daddy's wearing a raincoat
Daddy's smoking a cigarette
Daddy says he's got something to show to me
We can keep it our own special secret

Out of the car, and into the forest
Something's glittering behind the trees
There's a stack of overturned
flat-bottomed boats
Awaiting their launch in spring

He's taking me to daddy's water
He's taking my picture there
I'm smiling
standing on the stony shore
Of daddy's water
The water

Cast your dreams into the reservoir
It is the favorite food of the fishes there
Who swim atop the flooded fields
Who guard the wishes of the many men
And the many women

Sun is setting
it's getting cold
I don't know how to button my own coat
My daddy he reaches down
He picks me up off of the ground

He's taking me to daddy's water
He's taking my picture there
I'm smiling
standing on the stony shore
Of daddy's water
The water
