So long, darlin'

Oh how I hate to see you go

So long, darlin'

How I hate to see you go

Say good-bye to you baby

Ain't gonna let my happy home

So many sad, sad, sad years

Baby, but I've had my fun

So many sad, sad, sad years

I've had my fun

But the day I met you, darling

All my troubles have begun

I've got to leave you, baby

I don't care what you say

Leave you, darling

Come back home one sunny day

Down the road, down the road I go

I'm going to find myself a little woman

People, people to look after all my cares

So long

Baby, I hate to leave you this way

Baby, baby, so long

I sure do hate to leave this way

But when I come back home, yes

Baby, baby, you'll know I've been away
