Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Blues in DLyrics

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.
