歌词
Sonny lives on a farm on a wide open space
And Kick off your shoes , stay out of the race
And you can lay down your head by the soft river bed
Sonny always remembers the words his Mama said
Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone
And Your daddy's the sailor who never comes home
The nights get so long, and the silence goes on
And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong
Sonny works on the land though he's barely a man
There ain't much to do, yet he does what he can
And he sits by the window in his room by the stairs
Watches the waves gently wash on the pier
Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone
Your daddy's the sailor who never comes home
The nights get so long, and the silence goes on
And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong
Many years have passed on, Sonny's old and alone
His daddy's the sailor never came home
Sometimes he wonders what his life must have been
But from the grave Mama still haunts his dreams
Sonny don't go away, I am here all alone
Your daddy's the sailor who never comes home
The nights get so long, and the silence goes on
And I'm feeling so tired, I'm not all that strong
Sonny don't go away,
Sonny don't go .....
Sonny don't ....
