Kingston Trio - Hope You Understand lyrics

I hope you understand I've a long way to go Hope you understand because I told you so Well, as the people say, I will be comin' back this way But until then, gal, you're on your own I'm not the kind of guy just for hangin' 'round I'm bored to tears with this old town Well, if you behave, hey, I'll send you a card from Santa Fe But until then, gal, you're on your own I hope you understand I've a long way to go Hope you understand because I told you so Well, as the people say, I will be comin' back this way But until then, gal, you're on your own I'm gonna walk away, don't you come on along I will be singin' a lonesome song It's sad but true but I've just got to get away from you But until then, gal, you're on your own I hope you understand I've a long way to go Hope you understand because I told you so Well, as the people say, I will be comin' back this way But until then, gal, you're on your own I could never stay upon the shelf Where the wind and rain are never felt But, hey, don't cry, I'll be comin' back, by and by But until then, gal, you're on your own I hope you understand I've a long way to go Hope you understand because I told you so Well, as the people say, I will be comin' back this way But until then, gal, you're on your own
