The Boss’s Daughter
I've been working here in this dirty factory
Since the day my poor daddy died
Been supporting Clair, my ma and family
Seen her the way since I was only nine
And I always done as my father's son had ought to
Right 'til the day she came my way
Mm, the boss's daughter
She's the devil's child
And temptation is her name
And her hair is black as the miner's coal
She can drive you wild
Infatuation is her game
And her eyes hypnotise a man and his soul
Well, she smiled, come on
And well, well, I sought her
I went along, right or wrong
Mm, with the boss's daughter
She drove me in her own red jaguar
Right to her favourite place
And out of the way, out of the Sword's roadside bar
When conscience was erased
Now my life's been changed
Everything's been re-arranged
I'm a puppet, and she holds the strings
Lost my self-respect, I never do what I know is correct
And there's no dream on which I'm left to cling
And the Lord only knows
How hard, how hard I've fought here
I'll never win with a child of sin
Mm, the boss's daughter
Mm, the boss's daughter
Mm, the boss's daughter
Mm, the boss's daughter
Since the day my poor daddy died
Been supporting Clair, my ma and family
Seen her the way since I was only nine
And I always done as my father's son had ought to
Right 'til the day she came my way
Mm, the boss's daughter
She's the devil's child
And temptation is her name
And her hair is black as the miner's coal
She can drive you wild
Infatuation is her game
And her eyes hypnotise a man and his soul
Well, she smiled, come on
And well, well, I sought her
I went along, right or wrong
Mm, with the boss's daughter
She drove me in her own red jaguar
Right to her favourite place
And out of the way, out of the Sword's roadside bar
When conscience was erased
Now my life's been changed
Everything's been re-arranged
I'm a puppet, and she holds the strings
Lost my self-respect, I never do what I know is correct
And there's no dream on which I'm left to cling
And the Lord only knows
How hard, how hard I've fought here
I'll never win with a child of sin
Mm, the boss's daughter
Mm, the boss's daughter
Mm, the boss's daughter
Mm, the boss's daughter
