Raised by my dad, good were the days.
Raised by my dad, girl of the day.

Raised by my dad, girl of the day.
She bit off his arm.
She meant you no harm.
She can't chew no gum.
She meant you no harm.
She was a girl, so full of strange.
She was a girl, soft, but estranged.
She was a girl, so full of strength.
She was a girl, soft, but estranged.
She was a girl, so full of string.
She was a girl, soft, but estranged.
She was a girl, some boy's dream.
She was a girl, soft, but estranged.
She was a girl, soulful and strange.
She was a girl, soft, but estranged.
She was a girl
Softened by age.
She was a girl
Soft, but estranged.
She was a girl
Somebody strange.
She was a girl
Soft, but estranged.

You're breaking-guh-gurrrrrrrh!
You're breaking the girl.
