| Song | My Father Was a Lighthouse Keeper |
| Artist | The Incredible String Band |
| Album | First Girl I Loved [live] |
| 作词 : LeMaistre | |
| Lying on the beach with desire | |
| Rocking to the music of the waves | |
| I was in despair | |
| My heart needed repair | |
| My lover had lied to me but | |
| I was bored by what I saw there | |
| Why? Why! Why? | |
| My father was a lighthouse keeper | |
| Watched the waves getting steeper | |
| Watched the ships going down | |
| In cadillacs they sailed with the tide | |
| Beneath the pier the sea she stroked the night | |
| I rocked a little then | |
| I moved my body again | |
| My lover kissed my lips | |
| I was digging what I saw there | |
| Why! Why? Why! | |
| My father was a lighthouse keeper | |
| Watched the waves getting steeper | |
| Watched the ships going down | |
| We watched the days slip by and the stars explode | |
| And we watched them once again | |
| Oh the laughter rose a cheer | |
| Oh the laughter so nice to hear | |
| Oh the laughter so good and free | |
| Oh the laughter so nice to see | |
| I lay among the shells and coke cans | |
| In my lover | |
| All the people were eating | |
| And smiling sadly in their big cars | |
| My father looked down from his lighthouse | |
| He saw it all he knew it all | |
| Then he laughed a little | |
| Oh so pretty | |
| Oh so easy |
