Dusty Old Dust (So Long It's Been God to Know Yuh)

歌詞

I got the news that the war had begun It was straight for the Army Hall that I run And all of the people in my home town Was a running up and a running down Singing: So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you There's a mighty big war that's got to be won And we'll get back together again. The crowd was packed by the railroad track People was yelling and patting my back And while the engineer rung his bell I hugged all the mothers and kissed all the gals, Singing: So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you There's a mighty big war that's got to be won And we'll get back together again I got to the camp and I learnt how to fight Fascists in daytime, mosquitoes at night I got my orders to cross o'er the sea So I waved "goodbye" to the girls I could see, Singing: So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you There's a mighty big war that's got to be won And we'll get back together again I got on a boat and I started to float My old pack-sack and my big wool coat With ten thousand men we rode the foam And sung this song to the people back home: So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you There's a mighty big war that's got to be won And we'll get back together again I landed somewhere on a fighting shore With ten million soldiers and ten million more And while we were chasing that Super Race We sung this song in the chase. It was: So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you There's a mighty big war that's got to be won And we'll get back together again So it won't be long till the fascists are gone And all of their likes are finished and done We'll throw the clods of dirt in their face And walk away from that lonesome place Singing: So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you So long, it's been good to know you There's a mighty big war that's got to be won And we'll get back together again
