[00:18.04]Sonny lives on a farm
[00:22.56]In a wide open space
[00:26.56]Take off your shoes
[00:30.76]Stay out of the rain
[00:34.15]Lay down your head
[00:37.73]On a soft riverbed
[00:41.30]Sonny always remembers
[00:45.95]The words Mama said
[00:49.01]
[00:51.66]Sonny, don't go away
[00:56.42]I'm here all alone
[01:00.61]Your daddy is a sailor
[01:05.18]Never comes home
[01:09.49]Nights are so long
[01:13.74]Silence goes on
[01:17.74]I'm feeling so tired
[01:22.64]And not all that strong
[01:25.32]

[01:46.32]Many years have rolled on
[01:51.07]Sonny's old and alone
[01:55.43]His daddy, the sailor
[01:59.32]Never came home
[02:04.01]Sometimes he wonders
[02:07.66]What his life might've been
[02:11.87]Still from the grave
[02:15.77]Mama's voice haunts his dreams
[02:18.74]
[02:22.45]Sonny, don't go away
[02:27.23]I'm here all alone
[02:31.40]Your daddy, the sailor
[02:36.55]Never comes home
[02:40.99]Nights are so long
[02:44.82]Silence goes on
[02:48.92]I'm feeling so tired
[02:53.43]And not all that strong
[02:54.90]
[02:58.27]Sonny, don't go away
