[00:00.00]Halley Came to Jackson (Album) - Mary Chapin Carpenter
[00:25.80]Late one night when the wind was still
[00:28.49]
[00:31.74]Daddy brought the baby to the window sill
[00:34.43]
[00:37.55]To see a bit of heaven shoot across the sky
[00:40.36]
[00:43.61]The one and only time daddy saw it fly
[00:46.11]
[00:49.61]It came from the east just as bright as a torch
[00:52.55]The neighbors had a party on their porch
[00:55.55]Daddy rocked the baby mother said"Amen"
[00:58.55]When Halley came to visit in 1910
[01:01.24]
[01:13.62]Now back then Jackson was a real small town
[01:16.55]
[01:19.42]And it's not every night a comet comes around
[01:22.11]
[01:25.42]It was almost eighty years since it's last time through
[01:28.61]
[01:31.43]So I bet your mother would have said amen too
[01:34.36]
[01:37.36]As it's tailed stretched out like a stardust streak
[01:40.57]The papers wrote about it every day for a week
[01:43.69]You wondered where it's going and where it's been
[01:46.57]When Halley came to Jackson in 1910
[01:49.13]
[02:04.00]Now daddy told the baby sleeping in his arms
[02:07.17]
[02:09.88]To dream a little dream of a comet's charms
[02:13.75]
[02:15.85]And he made a little wish as she slept so sound
[02:18.85]
[02:22.04]In 1986 that wish came 'round
[02:24.78]
[02:27.85]It came from the east just as bright as a torch
[02:30.92]She saw it in the sky from her daddy's porch
[02:33.80]As heavenly sent as it was back then
[02:36.36]
[02:39.04]When Halley came to Jackson in 1910
[02:41.61]
[02:54.36]And late one night when the wind was still
