So Long Moving around my daddy sold his cloth Went to the south where things really took off He didn't have a contract and they let him go I heard times were tough, but I was too young to know So, we went up North to find another line But we wrote a tune it was a country song Saying I'm not just moving out I'm moving on So long dad so long you taught me right from wrong Gave me a home where I could grow up strong Always working hard so we could get along Now you're gone so long dad so long The years flew by like a bird in the sky A moment we're here and then we disappear And nobody knows what's going to be I'll call you tomorrow we'll have to wait and see So long dad so long you taught me right from wrong Gave me a home where I could grow up strong Always working hard so we could get along Now you're gone so long dad so long I sit and think about how much has been forgotten Of childhood memories And then the later years when we went back to Queens Both of us chasing our dreams Never really knew him for all the time we spent Promised we'd travel we never went Watching old movies singing old songs He never said goodbye always said so long So long dad so long you taught me right from wrong Gave me a home where I could grow up strong Always working hard so we could get along Now you're gone so long dad so long I won't say goodbye, I'll only say so long
