Hannah's Gone Upcountry Lyrics

There's lightning on the skyline

But I can't hear a sound

I used to stand for something

Now I can't find solid ground

Tom's gone to Hilo

And Sammy's gone to sea

But Hannah's gone upcountry

She wouldn't wait for me

The wind bites like a razor

When those Easterlies veer round

The moon floats high and lonesome

Peering through the clouds

Some fell where they were standing

Some are glory bound

But Hannah's gone to the mountains

And she's never coming down

There's lightning on the skyline

But I can't hear a sound

I used to stand for something

Now I can't find solid ground

Tom's gone to Hilo

And Johnny's gone to sea

But Hannah's up the country

She wouldn't wait for me

Yes, Hannah's gone upcountry

She won't even write to me
