Lyrics Sonny - Christy Moore
Sonny
lives
on
a
farm
in
a
wide
open
space
Take
off
your
shoes
stay
out
of
the
race
Lay
down
your
head
on
a
soft
river
bed
Sonny
always
remembers
the
words
Mamma
says
Sonny
don't
go
away,
I'm
here
all
alone
Your
daddy's
a
sailor,
never
comes
home
Nights
are
so
long,
silence
goes
on
I'm
feeling
so
tired
and
not
all
that
strong
Sonny
works
on
the
land,
though
he's
barely
a
man
There's
not
much
to
do
but
he
does
what
he
can
Sits
by
his
window
in
his
room
by
the
stairs
Watching
the
waves
drifting
soft
on
the
pier
Sonny
don't
go
away,
I'm
here
all
alone
Your
daddy's
a
sailor,
never
comes
home
Nights
are
so
long,
silence
goes
on
I'm
feeling
so
tired
and
not
all
that
strong
Many
years
have
rolled
on,
Sonny's
old
and
alone
His
daddy,
the
sailor,
never
came
home
Sometimes
he
wonders
what
his
life
might
have
been
But
from
the
grave
Mamma
still
haunts
his
dreams
Sonny
don't
go
away,
I'm
here
all
alone
Your
daddy's
a
sailor,
never
comes
home
Nights
are
so
long,
silence
goes
on
I'm
feeling
so
tired
and
not
all
that
strong
