Father's Daughter

I found myself on the wrong side of town
A darkened alley way, I had to stand my ground
I'm my father's daughter and he taught me how to fight
But he always told me "just stand tall, it'll be alright"

Well I wish that man could see me now
A fist full of someone else's blood
I can hear his voice in my head now
Sayin' "girl, you better not turn and run"

I found myself on the wrong side of a gun
Behind an old warehouse, you would have thought that I was done
But I'm my father's daughter and I know when I need to fight
And he always told me "just stand tall, it'll be alright"

Well I wish that man could see me now
My boots in someone else's blood
I can hear his voice in my head now
Sayin' "girl, you better not turn and run"

I found myself getting knocked out off an old bar stool
That boy was in trouble the moment I came to
'Cause I'm my father's daughter, and he taught me how to fight
But he never told me about if it went to far one night

Well I wish that man were with me now
'Cause I hear the sirens getting close
And it ain't his voice in my head now
Saying "girl, hurry up, 'cause you better run"
