So Long (It's Been Good to Know Yuh!)
(Homer & Jethro?)

We'll sing you a song and here's the first verse
It's gotta get better; it cain't get no worse
So loan us your ears for a minute 'er two
And we'll give 'em right back jist as soon as we're thru. (Singin'-)

So Long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh!
So Long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh!
So Oh Oh Long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh!
What a long time since I've been home
And I've gotta be driftin' along.

I had me a toothache; it hurt me so bad
I went to the dentist; now I'm sad
He yanked with his fingers and pulled with his thumb
He left all my teeth; but he pulled out my gums. (I said-)

CHORUS

I went out to milk the cow one day
With a stool and a bucket and a fork full of hay
I set down the bucket; plopped on the stool
I said: "Be still Bossie, you stubborn old fool."

Be still now Bossie, quit stompin' the ground
I've been out all night; a-runnin' around
She looked sympathetic with her big eyes of brown
She said, "Just hang on and I'll jump up and down." (I said-)

So Long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh!
Hang on, I ain't a-gonna throw yuh!
So Oh Oh Long, It's Been Good To Know Yuh!
What a long time since I've been home
And I've gotta be driftin' along.
