Slave Dealer's Daughter Lyrics - Gin Blossoms

I've been trying for so long 

Trying to forget 

The ports of northern Africa and the man I met 

He said he had a daughter 

Maybe I could meet her 

He thought I was a trader 

Oh, that was how I met 

That slave dealer's daughter 

Her eyes were black her hair was raven 

Her skin was soft and brown 

Eighteen years she looked a woman 

I thought she'd been around 

She'd never met a jailbird? 

I knew that she was lonely 

She offered me her body 

So I fell in love 

With that slave dealer's daughter 

Her father's men came after me 

Trying to hunt me down 

For three long years I've hid my face 

And run from town to town 

She never met a jailbird 

I knew that she was lonely 

She offered me her body 

So I fell in love 

With that slave dealer's daugther...
