So Long Dad
My God, it's great
To be back home again
The streets are
Not much cleaner
The quaint old home
Town scenery is quaint
No more, just older
Than before
Go up the stairs and down
The hallway to
My daddy's door
Your son is home, Dad
And he's found a girl
And she's the greatest
Girl in all the world
I think you'll like her Dad
And I hope you do
But if you don't
That's alright too
And what's new, Dad?
What's new, Dad?
I miss my
Dear old dad
My God, it's great
To be back home again
We won't be
Staying here, Dad
The smoke makes
Jane's eyes tear so bad
We can't have that
We'll write you where we're at
Jane's uncle owns a bank
I think, I'll try my hand at that
So come and see us
Papa, when you can
There'll always be
A place for my old man
Just drop by
When it's convenient to
Be sure to call
Before you do
And so long, Dad
So long, Dad
I miss my
Dear old dad
So come and see us
Papa, when you can
There'll always be a place
For my old man
Just drop by
When it's convenient to
Be sure to call
Before you do
And so long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long
To be back home again
The streets are
Not much cleaner
The quaint old home
Town scenery is quaint
No more, just older
Than before
Go up the stairs and down
The hallway to
My daddy's door
Your son is home, Dad
And he's found a girl
And she's the greatest
Girl in all the world
I think you'll like her Dad
And I hope you do
But if you don't
That's alright too
And what's new, Dad?
What's new, Dad?
I miss my
Dear old dad
My God, it's great
To be back home again
We won't be
Staying here, Dad

Jane's eyes tear so bad
We can't have that
We'll write you where we're at

So long, Dad

And so long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long, Dad
So long
