Look up, look down that lonesome road
Hang down your little head and cry my love
Hang down your little head and cry
The best of friends must part some time
And why not you and I my love
And why not you and I
The longest train i ever saw
Went down that Georgia line my love
Went down that Georgia line
The only girl I’ve ever loved
Is on that train and gone my love
Is on that train and gone
The darkest night I ever saw
Was the day I left my home my love
Was the day I left my home
I never thought when we first met
This awful day would come my love
This awful day would come
Look up, look down that lonesome road
Hang down your little head and cry my love
Hang down your little head and cry
The best of friends must part some day
And why not you and I my love
And why not you and I
