My Own Jo Ellen Lyrics

My Own Jo Ellen lyrics

Why is this day 

Why is this day like no other day 

Oh you've waited so long 

To be sure love is all 

And the first flowers bloom ? back on the farm 

The windows were warm 

Back home the windows are frozen shut 

Glad that you showed me how 

To get out of the cold 

And you almost had a house there in Mendocino 

We used to drive through the countryside 

And I will miss your dear sweet smile 

All the while 

I'll see you again 

My own Jo Ellen someone who knows 

Someone just as long you've been around 

There's an empty old sound 

Like the day coming down 

We used to drive through the countryside 

And I will miss your dear sweet smile 

All the while 

I'll see you again 

My own Jo Ellen 

Why is this day 

Why is this day like no other day 

Oh you've waited so long 

To be sure love is all 

And the first flowers bloom ? back on the farm
