Hewlett's Daughter - Grandaddy

I will never see this band live. This makes me sad. Not because I think they're the greatest band ever, but because of this song.


Hewlett's daughter
Loved her father
And I think she loved me too
For a little while

Hewlett's daughter
I forgot her
Now I'm treating (treading) water
And waste at night

High above the wrecks
On ice shelves and glaciers
I spy below the mess
And measure the pressures
Where sofas float on roads
And somebody stole your guns
Well sir I'm the only one
To get back your stolen guns
I should have been your son

High above the wrecks
On ice shelves and dressers
With crash united sewn
On all of my dress shirts
They firefell the roads
And somebody stole your guns
Well sir I'm the only one
To get back your stolen guns
I should have been your son

Yes sir, I'm the only one that should have been your son.
