Lyrics Nellie McKay – Mrs. Brown You’ve Got A Lovely Daughter

Mrs. Brown, you’ve got a lovely daughter
Girls as sharp as her are something rare
But it’s sad
She doesn’t love me now

She wants to return the things I bought her
Tell her she can keep them just the same
Things have changed
She doesn’t love me now
She’s made it clear enough
It ain’t no good to pine

Walking about
Even in a crowd, well
You’d pick her out
Makes a bloke feel
So proud

If she asks if I’ve been ’round to see you
Tell her that I’m well, and feeling fine
Don’t let on
Don’t say she’s broke my heart
I’d get down on my knees
But it’s no good to pine

Mrs. Brown, you’ve got a lovely daughter
Mrs. Brown, you’ve got a lovely daughter
Mrs. Brown, you’ve got a lovely daughter
