Artist/Band: Carly Simon
Lyrics for Song: Fairweather Father
Lyrics for Album: Another Passenger [1976]



Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Doesn't like to hear the baby cry

Doesn't like to know about the aches and pains

Of the day gone by

Of the day gone by



But the mother advertised as a bargain wife

She'd make things easy for the rest of his life

And to make herself more appealing

She'd think only of him and forget her own feelings



Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Wants his wife to be a truck driver

Wants his wife to be the gardener

And still look like a Hollywood starlet

And still look like a Hollywood starlet



So the mother gets mad and she leaves town

That brings the father and the baby down

She wants the father to find her

Drinkin' orange pop in a seedy Greek diner



Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Gets her back and gets up in the night

Loves her so much and holds the baby tight

Ain't that enough to make you cry

Ain't that enough to make you cry



Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Fairweather father

Doesn't like to hear the baby cry

Doesn't like to know about the aches and pains

Of the day gone by

Of the day gone by
