Gone Daddy Gone (Violent Femmes cover) Lyrics
Beautiful girl, love your dress
High school smiles, oh yes
Beautiful girl, love your dress
Where she is now I can only guess
Because it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone away
When I see you
Eyes will turn blue
When I see you
A thousand eyes turning blue
Because it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone away
And I can tell by the way that you
Switch your walk
And I can see by the way
That you baby talk
And I can know by the way that you
Treat your man
I can love you baby until it's a crying
Because it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone away
(Gone daddy gone)
Beautiful girl, love your dress
(Gone daddy gone)
Fifteen smiles, oh yes
(Gone daddy gone)
Beautiful girl, love your dress
(Gone daddy gone)
Where she is now I can only guess
Because it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
High school smiles, oh yes
Beautiful girl, love your dress
Where she is now I can only guess
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone away
Eyes will turn blue
When I see you
A thousand eyes turning blue
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone away
Switch your walk
And I can see by the way
That you baby talk
And I can know by the way that you
Treat your man
I can love you baby until it's a crying
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone away
Beautiful girl, love your dress
(Gone daddy gone)
Fifteen smiles, oh yes
(Gone daddy gone)
Beautiful girl, love your dress
(Gone daddy gone)
Where she is now I can only guess
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
It's gone daddy gone
The love is gone
Yeah, it's gone daddy gone
The love is gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Gone away

how come no one has written about this? its a good song!
Its a cover of a Violent Femmes song. Or maybe their's was a cover too? I don't know.
So simple but catchy.
I'm thinking it's just a nice feel good song.
its more of an upbeat song. i think ita about a high school love gone bad and now that she is gone he is saying there is no more love there. f that bitch. this dude doesnt give a shit anymore. THE LOVE IS GONE.... and he is happy. and so am i.
This is a Violent Femmes Cover, and their very loyal to it, didnt change much, Check out The Violent Femmes if you like this.
i think this song is about his ex going bi or lez i dont know why but that jsut what im getting from it but it says she has a man cover-up, maybeee
ugh bizarre music video for this one kind of ruined the song for me
I think it's about loss of innocence. Maybe a long lost high school love.
Good cover though.
It`s quite simple. The song is about a girl who reaches 15 years old... So when her father sees her he feels depressed because he realises that his daughter is turning into a woman.. Well that's what I think. (Sorry for my writting i'm from Argentina)
first of all some of the lyrics are wrong, instead of "i could love ya baby till it's a crying" it's "i could love you baby till it's a crime". i think it's to do with the girl in the song's father leaving her when she was younger, and now it affects the way she interacts with guys, like, she is searching for this love she never felt from a male figure, and finds this love from men. she dresses nicely to attract their attention, she switches her walk, once again indicating she craves the male attention. i think the "narrator" of the song is almost like a stalker type figure, he sees how insecure and vulnerable and desperate she is to be loved, so he knows how easy it will be for him to take advantage of her. "i can love ya baby til it's a crime". and if you listen to the song at the end his voice goes really creepy and deep, showing this dark sinister side to the narrator. and the whole wearing perfect dresses and smiling the perfect highschool smile is just a front this girl puts on to mask her pain and need for love. well, thats what i think anyway.
