Farewell Mgr John Swann
Today is a sad day, but we say farewell with a song!













SWANNY

It's almost time for you to go away
We'd rather that you did not go.
You've been our priest
For 10 years at least
With sermons that would inspire
You've taught us how to live and pray
We're really going to miss you so
But at seventy five priests still alive
Must all leave and retire.

Refrain:
Swanny
How we love you
How we'll miss you
Our dear old Swanny
Now you are going to stay
Among the folks in K-A-P-U-N-D-A
Your family's waiting for you
Praying for you there in Kapunda
We folks down South
Won't see you too much
But please do try to keep in touch.

Swanny Swanny
You're about to leave St Joseph
Swanny Swanny
All our love goes with you

Refrain
