The Prodigal Daughter - Michelle Shocked

[Modem Butterfly]

What's to be done with the prodigal son?
Welcome him with open arms
Throw a big party, invite your friends
"Our boy's come back home,"

When a girl comes home with the oats he's sown
It's draw your shades and your shutters
She's bringing such shame to the family name
The return of the prodigal daughter

Singing "Oh, cotton-eyed Joe,"

Went to see the doctor and I almost died
When I told my mama Lordy how she cried
Me and my daddy were never too close
He was there when I needed him most

Look here comes the prodigal son
Fetch him a tall drink of water
But there's none in the cut cause he drank it all up
Left for a prodigal daughter

Singing "Oh, cotton-eyed Joe,"
