My Father’s Daughter (feat. Dolly Parton)

She stepped off of the boat to see flowers in his hands The man she would marry was as hard as the mountains She had his children in a one room log cabin Soon I'd be another star in this family's constellation In the land of the midnight sun Searching for gold I am my father's daughter He has his mother's eyes I am the product of their sacrifice I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations And their stories live in me like holy water I am my father's daughter My father raised me in a one room log cabin And he sang for me the songs his mother sang for him And honkey-tonks, and empty bars, just me and him And that old guitar He passed on a legacy wrapped up in a melody That I carry on Searching for gold I am my father's daughter I have my Gramma's eyes I am the product of their sacrifice I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations And their stories live in me like holy water I am my father's daughter And every time I step on stage And the music finds me I don't need gold to remind me That I am my father's daughter I have my Grandma's eyes I am the product of such sacrifice I am the accumulation of the dreams of generations And their stories live in me like holy water I am my father's daughter I am my father's daughter Oh, I am my father's daughter
