Gene Pitney The Bosses Daughter Lyrics

The Bosses Daughter Lyrics

I`ve been working here in this dirty factory 
Since the day my poor daddy died 
Been supporting clear my ma and family 
Seen her the way since I was only nine 
 
And I always done as my fathers son had ought to 
Right `till the day she came my way 
Mmmmm, the bosses daughter 
 
She`s the devil`s child 
And temptation is her name 
And her hair is black as the miner`s coal 
She can drive ya wild 
Infatuation is her game 
And her eyes hypnotise a man and his soul 
 
Well she smiled come on 
And well, well I sought her 
I went along right or wrong 
Mmmmm, with the bosses daughter 
 
She drove me in her own red jaguar 
Right to her favourite place 
And out of the way out of the Sword`s roadside bar 
When conscience erased 
 
Now my life`s been changed 
Everything`s been re-arranged 
I`m a puppet and she holds the strings 
Lost my self respect, I never do what I know`s correct 
And there`s no dream on which I`m left to cling 
 
And the Lord only knows 
How hard, how hard I`ve fought here 
I`ll never win with a child of sin 
Mmmmm, the bosses daughter (3x fading)
