Fisherman's Daughter

The Waifs

I don't like gold

And I don't like pearls

I'm just your regular West Australian

Fisherman's daughter

I'm a middle class

Folk singing guitar playing girl



I ain't seen the world

No I've not travelled far

I'm saving dollars for

A nineteen sixty two

Ruby red interior R series Valiant

Mother f*cking of a car



Coz I'm a country girl

And I'm in a city world

Pulling up pulling all the man

I'm gonna let you through

I'm living in the left hand lane of my city

Slow down so I can walk this highway with you

Slow down, let me walk it with you



Slow down, we all gotta slow down

Man I wanna walk that highway with you

Yeah, I wanna be walking

With you you you you you

Slow down, the whole world's gonna slow down

I wanna walk that high way with you,

With you you you you with you



No, not yet married

I got no ring on my hand

I got my heart beating for

This sweet loving second hand dealing boy

I'm gonna love him

The best way I can I know I can



Coz I'm a country girl

In a city world pulling down

Pulling all the man

I'm gonna let you through

I'm living in the left hand lane of my city

Slow down so I can walk this highway with you

Slow down let me walk it with you



I don't like gold

And I don't like pearls

I'm just your regular West Australian

Fisherman's daughter

I'm a middle class
