I've been thinking 'bout a place I once knew well,
Bout a girl I left across yonder bay.
But I know one thing my pretty darlin',
I know I'll see you on another day.

Now, the days are gettin' dark and chilly,
The river's cold and the meadows wrapped in snow.
My heart is longing for your singin' breezes,
Down where the golden rivers flow.

Now you may think I'm only talkin'
You may think I'm only gonna break your heart.
But I know where the grass is growin'
One true love will finally get a start.

Now, I think I'm headin' for greener pastures.
My train is travelin' on a straighter road.
I think I'm learnin' things I've never learned before,
And a hundred other things I never knowed.
