The door comes crashing down Your daddy’s face all pale Says come with me you hairy bum I’ll put you in my jail You’re a judge’s daughter You’re a judge’s daughter Why do I always get The kinda girl I didn’t oughta get Now I’m getting jail and torture ’Cause I made the judge’s daughter It seems they’re screaming law and order When I go with anyone’s daughter Woman I should like some peace And daddy hold your tongue I think you’re gonna die of fright When I tell you what I’ve done I can hear your tales and lies You say I’m dumb and scraggy But man this dumb and scraggy is Your daughter’s baby’s daddy She’s a lucky daughter Such a lucky daughter Why did I always get The kinda girl I didn’t wanna get Now I’ve got what I always fought for ’Cause I’ve married a rich man’s daughter
