Of some of the troubles that

They hugged and they kissed
They sighed and they cried
and they hugged and they kissed
Sayin' so long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to
It's been long time since
and I gotta be driftin' along.

for a long time since I've been home.
And I gotta be driftin' along.
The church, it was packed.
A thousand friends waited to

So long, it's been good to know you.
But a long time since I've been home.
Been a time I've been home.
I gotta be drifting along.
