Got to say so long, got to be on my way
I got to be movin' on ain't no more to say
Got to see my baby further on down the line
Got to say so long so long goodbye

Wish you could stay around
Just to see what's going on
Wish you could lay around, mama
Sure looks like lots of fun
I got to see my baby
Wipe the tears from her eyes
Got to say so long, so long goodbye

I've been too long on the road
Kind of this heavy load
But can't you see it's got to be
Too much for me too much for me

So I got to say later on later on
I'll see you somewhere around
I got to be long gone
Before that evil sun go down
Got to see my baby
One more time before I die
Got say so long so long goodbye

Got to say so long
I'll see you somewhere around
Maybe the next time
I'll be in your town
Mama mama mama...

So long yeah, so long baby so long honey
Got to be moving on
