Myra Jean

Myra Jean

When October leaves begin to fall,
In the gathering season comes the call.
A baby girl has joined us all,
Hello, sweet Myra Jean.
All over the city and through the town
The word was quickly passed around,
Across the country, westward bound
We’re coming Myra Jean.

Myra Jean, Myra Jean,
October child, sweet colleen,
Morning Princess, Harvest Queen,
Hello, sweet Myra Jean.

With autumn harvest in full swing
And migrant birds all on the wing,
What more can this season bring?
Hello sweet Myra Jean.
It seems no joy is too extreme
So bang the drum and tambourine,
Celebrate the living dream
And welcome Myra Jean.

Myra Jean, Myra Jean,
October child, sweet colleen,
Morning Princess, Harvest Queen,
Hello, sweet Myra Jean.
Myra Jean, Myra Jean,
October daughter, sweet colleen,
Morning Princess, Harvest Queen,
Hello, sweet Myra Jean.

This song appears on Tom Chapin's Tom Chapin - 70 CD.
