LYRICS:

Savannah, Savannah. Oh Savannah Blue.
Savannah, Savannah. Rip my heart in two.
Though you're much too old for me, it's true.
No one does me like Savannah do.
Well I don't know if you are married, but I'd be quite surprised,
if no man yet has claimed you for his consolation prize.
To me it means so much more than a trophy can comprise,
just to look into Savannah's eyes.

Oh Savannah, Savannah. Oh Savannah Blue.
Savannah, Savannah. Rip my heart in two.
Though you're much too old for me, it's true.
No one does me like Savannah do.

Though I'm sure I'm much too common, I just hope I'm not uncouth,
when I say that love is wasted on the naif unripened youth.
How I wish that I was born before 1942,
just so Mrs. Blue could love me too.

Oh Savannah, Savannah. Oh Savannah Blue.
Savannah, Savannah. Rip my heart in two.
Though I'm much too young for you, it's true.
No one does me like Savannah do.

It's said that age is just a number, and I certainly agree,
but the world so rarely acts upon the wisdom that it speaks.
In fact, they often ridicule the same things they beseech,
like the tender love between myself and Ms. Savannah B.

Oh Savannah, Savannah. Oh Savannah Blue.
Savannah, Savannah. Rip my heart in two.
Though you're much too old for me, it's true.
No one does me like Savannah do.

(C) 2011, Jeff Warren Johnston
