Daughter Of The Everglades |
| Were you were raised by the river |
| Down in the low, low land |
| Where the air is dark and sinister |
| In the night there’s no safe place to stand |
| In the reeds there are eyes that peek |
| Voices I can’t understand |
| Flamingos flying endlessly |
| Into the silent sky |
| Daughter of the everglades |
| You never made it clear |
| Child of the river |
| If you wanted to be here |
| Daughter of the everglades |
| I never saw your tears |
| Well you looked like your mama |
| Before you walked, you swam |
| Learned to make that snake tail stew |
| From your daddy |
| Crazy talking fisherman |
| In this place there is no law |
| The river makes all the rules |
| What they are, I found out |
| When I came to look for you |
| Daughter of the everglades |
| Why did you bring me here? |
| Daughter of the everglades |
| My love has turned to fear |
| Daughter of the everglades |
| Let me feel you near |
| Well you laughed in the city |
| But I knew after a year |
| That you’d cry in the city |
| I should not have brought you here |
| So far from the bayou |
| Down in the low, low land |
| Don’t know why you left me |
| But now I think I understand |
