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
