Lyrics

LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER MICHELLE MALONE / DEAN DILLON

SHE’S THE KIND OF WOMAN THAT’LL TELL YOU WHAT TO THINK
AND WHERE YOU CAN GO
ONE DAY YOU REALIZE THAT YOU FINALLY GOT IT RIGHT
BECAUSE SHE TOLD YOU SO
SHE’LL PUT YOU IN YOUR PLACE ANYTIME SHE WANTS
AND IT’S NOT VERY OFTEN THAT SHE DON’T

CAUSE SHE’S HARD-HEADED, LEAD-FOOTED
TOUGHT TO THE BONE, ROOTED DEEP IN HER SOUTHERN WAYS
AND SHE’S SHARP AS A TACK, WONT HAVE YOU TALKING BACK
AND THERE’S NOTHING THAT SHE’LL TAKE TO HER GRAVE
OH, IT MUST BE IN THE WATER
LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER

IT ISN’T VERY OFTEN THAT SHE’LL LET YOU DO THE TALKING
OH, BUT WHEN SHE DOES
IT BETTER BE ABOUT HER, CAUSE IF IT’S NOT ABOUT HER
GONNA WISH IT WAS
SHE’LL HOLD YOU IN HER ARMS WHEN LIFE MAKES YOU CRY
TELL YOU YOU’RE THE APPLE OF HER BIG BROWN EYES

WELL, SHE’LL STAY WITH YOU, PRAY WITH YOU
TELL YOU YOU’RE OK WHEN THE WORLD TREATS YOU BLACK AND BLUE
AND SHE’LL SING FOR YOU, SCHEME FOR YOU
CLIMB IN THE RING FOR YOU, ANYTHING YOU ASK HER TO
AND IT’S NOT BECAUSE SHE OUGHTA
LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER

I BLEW UP HER PROM QUEEN DREAMS WHEN SHE WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL
PAY BACKS ARE HELL, THEY SAY, WHEN YOU DONT PLAY BY THE RULES
AND I DONT ALWAYS WANNA - LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER
OH IT MUST BE IN THE WATER - LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER
LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER
LIKE MOTHER LIKE DAUGHTER
