Sweet allison I'll be home in week
I'm awful lonely and I can't get much sleep
you know I miss you
And i know you miss me too
I'm thinking of you
Honey I'll be coming home soon

I've been wearing out the floor boards
Angel I can't take much more
I'm pushing through
The goodbye blues

A thousand miles and a thousand more to go
When I'm away from you the time passes so slow
I want to get back home and watch our flowers grow
Sweet allison I miss you so much more than you could ever know

I've been wearing out the floor boards
angel I can't take much more
what do I do
with the goodbye blues

I miss you
I miss you

what do you do
with the goodbye blues
