Letra de Halley Came To Jackson

[Verso]
Late one night when the wind was still
Daddy brought the baby to the window sill
To see a bit of heaven shoot across the sky
The one and only time daddy saw it fly
It came from the east just as bright as a torch
The neighbours had a party on their porch
Daddy rocked the baby, mother said, "Amen"
When Halley came to visit in 1910
Now back then Jackson was a real small town
And its not every night a comet comes around
It was almost eighty years since it's last time through
So I bet your mother would have said amen too
As it's tailed stretched out like a stardust streak
The papers wrote about it every day for a week
You wondered where its going and where its been
When Halley came to Jackson in 1910
Now daddy told the baby sleeping in his arms
To dream a little dream of a comets charms
And he made a little wish as she slept so sound
In 1986 that wish came round
It came from the east just as bright as a torch
She saw it in the sky from her daddys porch
As heavenly sent as it was back then
When Halley came to Jackson in 1910
