So long it's been good to know you

So long it's been good to know you

This dusty old dust

Is blowin' me home

I've got to be rolling along

I'll sing this song

But I'll sing it again

Of the place that I lived

On the west texas plains

In the city of pamper

The county of gray

Here's what all of the people are say

Well it's so long it's been good to know you

So long it's been good to know you

So long it's been good to know you

This dusty old dust

Is a blowing me home

I've got to be driftin' along

Anyway like I told you

The old dust storm hit there

These people all congregated in their little houses

And in the room

And the house that I was in

There was twelve or fifteen people

And thought we was there

Telling each other

So long it's been good to know you

Dusty old dust

Is blowing me home

And I ain't got long to stay

I've gotta be drifting along

The telephone rang

And it jumped off the wall

That was the preacher paying his call

He said look at the shape that the world is in

I've got a cut price on salvation and sin

So long been good to know you

So long it's been good to know you

So long it's been good to know you

This dusty old dust

Is a driving me home

And I've gotta be drifting along

The church houses were jammed and packed

People were sittin' from front to the back

It was so dusty

The preacher couldn't read his text

So he folded his specks and he took up collection

Said so long it's been good to know you

So long been good to know you

So long it's been good to know you

This dusty old dust

Is a rolling me home

Gotta be drifting alone

It's almost as famous as they know the name that they
