The golden light about you show me where you're from The magic in your eye bewitches all you gaze upon You stand up on your hill and behop all around you They wonder where you're from oh yeah They wonder where I found you Oh my love it's a long way Where you're from it's a long way I tried to understand you, I tried to love you right The way you smile and touch me always sets my heart alight Your lips are like a fire burning through my soul And people ask me where you're from They really wanna know Oh my soul it's a long way Where you're from it's a long way Magic woman wreckin' up my soul Things you tell me have never been told Magic woman I don't know Electric before me I love you so I love you so You're racing like a fireball dancing like a ghost You're gemini and I don't know which one I like the most My head is getting broken and my mind is getting bust But now I'm coming with you down the road of golden dust Oh my love it's a long way Where you're from it's a long way

I stood under your bedroom window Throwing up a brick No one came I threw one more That really did the trick Your daddy came and banged my head He said what kind of man Is this that's hanging 'round my girl And threw me in the car You're a farmer's daughter You're a farmer's daughter Why do I always get The kinda girl I didn't oughta get I won't get no more eggs and water Now I've laid the farmer's daughter Imagine I was a full-grown man And I could talk just right Could I come and see you here And do this every night Wham! The door comes crashing down Your daddy's face all pale Says come with me you hairy bum I'll put you in my jail You're a judge's daughter You're a judge's daughter Why do I always get The kinda girl I didn't oughta get Now I'm getting jail and torture 'Cause I made the judge's daughter It seems they're screaming law and order When I go with anyone's daughter Woman I should like some peace And daddy hold your tongue I think you're gonna die of fright When I tell you what I've done I can hear your tales and lies You say I'm dumb and scraggy But man this dumb and scraggy is Your daughter's baby's daddy She's a lucky daughter Such a lucky daughter Why did I always get The kinda girl I didn't wanna get Now I've got what I always fought for 'Cause I've married a rich man's daughter
