Where Has Sally Gone Lyrics - Singles - Caroline Smith And The Good Night Sleeps

little girl 

little girl 

watching over daddy's farm 

from your spot in the old oak tree 

little girl 

little girl 

in your spot that overlooks 

all the flowing grains of grass and harmonies 

but where has papa gone? 

where has papa gone? 

to the coast 

TV dinners 

magazines 

he's gonna make it on the scene 

a new Mercedes with a financed lease 

a little girl 

to sow the garden 

while he's chasing down his dreams 

a little late under those fake palm trees 

but little sally's stressed 

because she can't quite reach the dresser drawers or cabinets 

little girl 

little girl 

in your spot that overlooks 

she sees a thick rain and an overflowing crick 

man the latches 

ground the floor 

the wind is knocking at her door 

but she's too little for that latching job to work 

and out the door she flies 

but the wind won't stain her eyes or the collars of her dress 

she's with the rest 

of them 

she's with the rest 

of them 

she's with the rest 

now where has sally gone? 

where has sally gone? 

to the coast 

just in a different way 

to the coast 

over the Atlantic bay 

to the coast 

she helps the sun each day 

shine over you
