I hate to see you go

You're goin' up the loggin' road

Bless my soul, it's starting to snow

I hate to see you go

You're goin' up the loggin' road

You're moving out so slow

Swing your partner do-si-do

Goodbye goodbye goodbye



Don't forget your hat, my love

I just won't have you goin' out

Looking like that, my love

Look out for the bears

There's going to be a lot of strangeness there

And whatever you do don't go to sleep

Don't lie down don't do the final thing

Oh, and if I come looking for you

Up the loggin' road

And if I find you fallen down should I fall?

Should I kneel? Should I cover you?

Should I keep you from the cold?

Goodbye goodbye goodbye



What's that?

You say you forgot the sweet familiar?

Tears are a-clinking?

Yeah, it's getting pretty cold

And as you move up into the forest

As you move between the thin the trees

You'll be in good hands

You can do whatever you please

Anything you say, anything you do

Anything you say, anything you do

Goodbye goodbye goodbye
