lyrics

She grew up in a cottage of stone
Knows the pain of being alone
Up hill and down dale
So strong she'll never fail

Hair curls softly round her
Deep brown eyes
She's the prize many have tried to win
But with a grin she turns and says
"Boy, I'm the Butcher's Daughter"
Like lambs to the slaughter
When she throws her head and sings just like a bird...
Sweetest sound you've ever heard

And I said hmmmm, mmmmmmm

Since the boat went down we've been treading water
Me and the butcher's daughter
We've both forgotten how to swim
But I know dry land is not a myth, and

Hmmmm, mmmmmmm
