Her Father Didn't Like Me Anyway Lyrics

Artist: Gerry Rafferty
Album: Over My Head

Humblebums (classic acoustic) version

The coat she wore still lies upon the bed
The book I gave her that she never read
She left without a single word to say
Her father didnâ‚¬â„¢t like me anyway.

She always wanted more than I could give
She wasnâ‚¬â„¢t happy with the way we lived
I didnâ‚¬â„¢t feel like asking her to stay
Her father didnâ‚¬â„¢t like me anyway.

Daddy never knew just what sheâ‚¬â„¢d seen in me
Daddy didnâ‚¬â„¢t like my hair
Perhaps if we had talked, heâ‚¬â„¢d have seen something in me
But Daddy didnâ‚¬â„¢t really care.

To tell the truth I didnâ‚¬â„¢t have the nerve
I know I only got what I deserved
So now sheâ‚¬â„¢s taken leave of me today
Her father didnâ‚¬â„¢t like me anyway.

Daddy never knew just what sheâ‚¬â„¢d seen in me
Daddy didnâ‚¬â„¢t like my hair
Perhaps if we had talked, heâ‚¬â„¢d have seen something in me
But Daddy didnâ‚¬â„¢t really care.

The coat she wore still lies upon the bed
The book I gave her that she never read
She left without a single word to say
Her father didnâ‚¬â„¢t like me anyway.

Over My Head version

The coat she wore still lies upon the bed
The book I gave her that she never read
She left without a single word to say
Her father didnâ‚¬â„¢t like me anyway.

She always needed more than I could give
She wasnâ‚¬â„¢t happy with the way we lived
I didnâ‚¬â„¢t feel like asking her to stay
Her father didnâ‚¬â„¢t like me anyway.

Daddy never knew just what sheâ‚¬â„¢d seen in me
He said I was going nowhere
Maybe if weâ‚¬â„¢d talked, heâ‚¬â„¢d have seen something in me
But Daddy didnâ‚¬â„¢t really care.

To tell the truth I didnâ‚¬â„¢t have the nerve
I know I only got what I deserved
So now sheâ‚¬â„¢s taken leave of me today
Her father didnâ‚¬â„¢t like me anyway.
