(Alan Rose)

One day the train was passin' 
I caught it comin' by 
To look this old world over under God's blue sky 
My darlin' stood there weepin' as I was looking back 
I kissed my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track 

Goodbye so long until I come back home 
You'll be my dream 
Goodbye so long, there's lots of places that I've never seen 
I'll always be a drifter but I'll be driftin' back 
To where I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track 

I like to keep on goin' it helps me when I'm blue 
I get the urge to travel that's all I want to do 
I just can't settle down because I like to roam 
And when I hear that whistle blow I've gotta move along 

Goodbye so long there's something down the track keeps callin' me 
Goodbye so long I guess that's just the way I'll always be 
So when I get that feelin' don't try to hold me back 
I'd only leave you crying in that smoke along the track 

I know my baby loves me I love my baby too 
But he don't understand me when I'm feelin' blue 
And when I hear that whistle blow, I hurry home and pack 
And leave my baby cryin' in the smoke along the track. 

Goodbye, so long, I hate to leave you, but I've got to go 
Goodbye, so long, It's coming down just hear that whistle blow 
It'll be here in a minute, you'll wave and I'll look back 
I'm gonna leave you cryin' in the smoke along the track. 

Goodbye so long until I come back home 
You'll be my dream 
Goodbye so long, there's lots of places that I've never seen 
I'll always be a drifter but I'll be driftin' back 
To where I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track 
To where I left you cryin' in the smoke along the track
