Jenell

Words and Music by Amanda Birdsall © 2007 ASCAP



when you were a little girl

you were taken from your family

your mama was young and wild

your daddy was a mystery



Hey..........Jenell, I wish you well

Hey....... mmm hmmm



when the circus came to town

you rode on an elephant

but in your secret heart

you loved the lion best



Hey..........Jenell, I wish you well

Hey....... mmm hmmm



you spilled your ice cream cone

down the front of your yellow dress

trying to save a baby bird

that had fallen from its mother’s nest



Hey..........Jenell, I wish you well

Hey....... mmm hmmm



you dream you’re an angel

you dream that you can fly

you sleep on a bed of stars

while the moon sings a lullaby



ooooo.....



I don’t know where you are today

but I hope that you’re alright

10 years since you left my door

I still pray for you every night



Hey..........Jenell, I wish you well

Hey....... mmm hmmm
