SHANNON'S SONG
(Roger Miller)


Roger Miller - 1973


Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh
Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh
Duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh, dit-duh-duh-duh-duh

She's my baby lady (She's my baby lady)
She's my baby child (She's my baby child)
Runnin' round in sunsuits drivin' daddy wild

Lovely to look at (Umm-umm-umm-umm-umm-umm)
Beautiful to see (Umm-umm-umm-umm-umm)
Lookin' like her mommy lookin' up at me

Can it be the sun makes me feel so warm
Can it be the sunshine in my arms
She's the shining light (Light) makes my days so bright (Bright)
Sweetens all the dreams I dream at night

She's my baby lady (She's my baby lady)
She's my baby child (She's my baby child)
Lookin' like a princess, such a pretty smile

(Whistle)

(La-da-da-da-da-da)
(La-da-da-da-da-diddly-da-diddly-da-da-da-da-da-da-da)
(Da-da-da-da-da-da-da)

Can it be the sun makes me feel so warm
Can it be the sunshine in my arms
She's the shining light (Light) makes my days so bright (Bright)
And sweetens all the dreams I dream at night

She's my baby lady (She's my baby lady)
She's my baby child (She's my baby child)
Lookin' like a princess, such a pretty smile
