Blues In D Lyrics - Kate & Anna Mcgarrigle - Kate & Anna Mcgarrigle

My daddy came to see me 

He came all dressed in black 

He said, "Katie dear" 

"You know I want you back" 

Oh no, oh no, oh no 

You know I want you back again 

You know I can't stand to live alone 

I got up from my bed 

Jumped back from the cold 

Said, "You're looking good" 

And I said, "I'm feelin' old" 

Oh no, oh no, oh no 

I'll give you silver, give you gold 

I'll give you anything your little hand can hold 

He came back on the Friday 

He came dressed in brown 

He said, "Tell me now" 

"Well, do I swim or do I drown?" 

Oh no, oh no, oh no 

You know, I had to say yes 

Because I couldn't let that poor boy down
