Her Father Didn't Like Me Anyway Lyrics - Shane Macgowan

The coat she wore still lies upon the bed 

The book I gave her that she never read 

She left without a single word to say 

Her father didn't like me anyway 

She always wanted more than I could give 

Cause she wasn't happy with the way we lived 

I suppose I should have begged with her to stay 

Her father didn't like me anyway 

And Oh! Daddy didn't like the clothes I wear 

And Oh! Daddy didn't like my hair 

I suppose that if we tried to we could have found something to say 

But daddy didn't even care 

To tell the truth I didn't have the nerve 

And I'm only getting just what I deserve 

She left without a single word today 

Her father was a right cunt anyway
