Goodbye girl Gone to see the world,
Out to see everything but me
Your letters aint coming that much any more
Your letters aint coming at all

I've been to Memphis; I've been to Rome,
But because you were here, I came back home
Now I'm not trying to place any blame
But I came back for you now I'd expect you do the same

Travellin', travellin' so, so far away
If your comin' home
You'd better leave now,
You better leave now

Good-bye girl gone to see the world,
Out to see every thing you choose
Now it's becoming so clear
That your feet are planted deep
In your travellin' shoes

Travellin', travellin' so, so far away
If your comin' home
You'd better leave now,
You better leave now
