Bij het horen van de naam Shannon denk je in eerste instantie hoogstwaarschijnlijk aan een meisjesnaam. Niets is minder waar, want dit nummer gaat over een hond. Shannon was de hond van Beach Boys-lid Carl Wilson.

Songtekst

Another day is at end
Mama says she's tired again
No one can even begin to tell her
I hardly know what to say
But maybe it's better that way
If papa were here
I'm sure he'd tell her

[chorus]:
Shannon is gone
I hope she's drifting out to sea
She always loved to swim away
Maybe she'll find an island
With a shady tree
Just like the one in our backyard

Mama tries hard to pretend
Things will get better again
Somehow she's keeping
It all inside her
But finally the tears fill our eyes
And I know that somewhere tonight
She knows how much
We really miss her

[repeat chorus]
