Lyrics by:Ron Hynes
Composed by:Ron Hynes
Oh Sonny don't go away
I am here all alone
Your daddy's a sailor
Who never comes home
Nights get so long
Silence goes on
My feeling so tired
Not all that strong
Sonny lives on a farm
In a far distance space
Take off your shoes
Stay I love the race
Lay down your head
By a soft river bed
Sonny always remembers
What's mama said
Sonny don't go away
I am here all alone
Your daddy's a sailor
Never comes home
Nights get so long
Silence goes on
I'm feeling so tired
Not all that strong
Sonny carries a load
Though he's barely a man
There is not much to do
What he does what he can
Sits by his window
When is room on the stage
Watching the ways dripting soft on the way
Sonny don't go away
I am here all alone
Your daddy's a sailor
Never comes home
Nights get so long
Silence goes on
I'm feeling so tired
Not all that strong
And he here have all long
Sonny's old and the run
His daddy's a sailor
Never came home
Sometimes you wonders
What's is life my that been
Still from the breath
Mama's how is wants a drink
Sonny don't go away
I am here all alone
Your daddy's a sailor
Never comes home
Nights get so long
Silence goes on
I'm feeling so tired
Not all that strong
Sonny don't go away
