- Notes: ~ the name James Royce
Shannon is a pseudonym for James Joyce
- who added the
words to the melody originally published in 1914 and
based
- on "an original melody procured by John
Valentine Eppell." It became the
- official state song
of Missouri and later was associated with President Harry
- Truman, who would often play it on the piano for guests
at the White House.
