Lyrics
Captain’s Daughter (4:09)
(T Rudd)

If I met you high on a hill
If I be your Jack would you be my Jill
If I shake it to the left
And you shake it to the right
Would you dance with me on the floor tonight

You’re the one baby you’re the one
When you smile at me I just come undone
Someday maybe you will understand
You’re the one who makes me who I am

The day we met and to this day still
You can share my wine
We can drink our fill
If there’s trouble up ahead
We won’t look behind
We’ll just walk a little closer and we’ll be just fine,

You’re the one, baby you’re the one
As we sail our life to the settin’ sun
I’m alright and I know I’ll be
‘Cause I married the captain’s daughter

Come on baby won’t you come with me
And let me take you by the hand
Let’s go out tonight and live our lives
Like nobody can
Like nobody can

If we take sometime from the daily grind
To breathe a little deeper for some peace of mind
One day baby you will see
Love is an ocean that can set us free

You’re the one baby you’re the one
As we sail our life to the settin’ sun
I’m all right and I know I’ll be
Cause I married the captain’s daughter

You’re the one baby you’re the one
When you smile at me
I just come undone
I’m as right as rain
And I can’t complain
‘Cause I married the captain’s daughter
