When I hear this song it takes me back to before I went to school. I was visiting my grand parents in Cradock and my aunt used to play it on the record player in the Grand Sitting room in the evenings after dinner… Good memories. I do love Joe Dolan’s songs.

Hush hush Maria by Joe Dolan

who’s gonna tell Maria he won’t be home
who’s gonna tell Maria she’s now alone
tell her the life he wanted took him away
tell her there’s no use living for yesterday
hush hush Maria
hush Maria
they say it’s best they say
hush hush Maria hush Maria
it had to end this way
who’s gonna tell Maria he won’t return
who’s gonna tell Maria that love can burn
tell her that love so simple could never be
tell her that she was looking but could not see
who’s gonna tell Maria
and tell her son
tell them they lost a man
they never won
who’s gonna tell Maria
he won’t be home
he was the kind of man
no-one could own

Thank you for taking the time to look at my post.

Till next time. Stay safe.
