Henry Gross Shannon lyrics

Another day is at end
Mama says she`s tired again
No one can even begin to tell her
I hardly know what to say
But maybe it`s better that way
If Papa were here I`m sure he`d tell her

Shannon is gone
I hope she`s drifting out to sea
She always loved to swim away
Maybe she`ll find an island
With a shaded tree
Just like the one in our backyard

Mama tries hard to pretend
That things will get better again
Somehow she`s keepin` it all inside her
But finally the tears fill our eyes
And I know that somewhere tonight
She knows how much we really miss her

Shannon is gone
I hope she`s drifting out to sea
She always loved to swim away
Maybe she`ll find an island
With a shaded tree
Just like the one in our back yard ...
Just like the one in our back yard .....
