歌曲歌詞
I've sung this song
But I'll sing it again
Of the place that
I lived on the wild windy plains
In the month called April
County called Gray
And here's what all of the people there say:
So long it's been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home
And I got to be driftin' along
A dust storm hit an' it hit like thunder;
It dusted us over an' it covered us under;
Blocked out the traffic
An' blocked out the sun
Straight for home all the people did run
Saying So long been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home
I've got to be driftin' along
We talked of the year the world and then
We'd sing a song an' then sing it again
We'd sit for an hour an' not say a word
And then these words would be heard:
So long it's been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home
And I got to be driftin' along
Sweethearts sat in the dark and sparked
They hugged and kissed
In that dusty old dark
They sighed and cried
Hugged and kissed
Instead of marriage
They talked like this:
"Honey"
So long been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home
And I got to be driftin' along
Now the telephone rang
An' it jumped off the wall
That was the preacher
A-makin' his call
He said "Kind friend
This may be the end;
An' you got your last chance
Of salvation of sin "
The churches was jammed
And the churches was packed
An' that dusty old dust
Storm blowed so black
Preacher could not read
A word of his text
An' he folded his specs
An' he took up collection
Said So long been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh;
So long it's been good to know yuh
This dusty old dust is a-gettin' my home
And I got to be driftin' along
