Well, I've sung this song,
Here's what all of the people there say
So long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
This dusty old dust is a -givin' my home
And I've got me grippin' along
Well it dust storm hit and it hit like thunder
It dusted us over and dusted us under
Locked out the traffic, locked out the sun
And straight for shelter the
Singing, so long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
This dusty old dust is a -hittin' my home
And I've got to be driftin' along
We'd sit for an hour and not say a word
And then these words would be heard
So long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
This dusty old dust is gettin' my home
And I've got to be driftin' along
The sweethearts they sat in the dark
They hugged and they kissed
They sighed and they cried
and they hugged and they kissed
they were talkin' like this, honey
So long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
So long, it's been good to know ya
This dusty old dust is gettin' my home
And I've got to be riftin' along
and it jumped off the wall
That was the preacher of making his call
And he said, kind friend,
You've got your last chance
Well the churches was jammed,
and the churches was packed
And that dusty old dust dorm,
And the preacher could not
and he took up collection
Said, so long, it's been good to know ya,
so long, it's been good to know ya,
so long, it's been good to know ya
This dusty old dust is gettin' my home
And I vow to be driftin' along
