(Jim Reeves)

Chorus:
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Younder comes a sucker and he's got my gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I bid her my last fairwell.

I fell in love with a pritty little thing
I thought that wedding bells would ring
She was sweat as sweat could be
'Til I found out what she did to me.

Chorus:
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Younder comes a sucker and he's got my gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I bid her my last fairwell.

I ask her mother to let her go
She whisperd mother please tell him no
Though he may think that I am true
There's plenty more who thinks so too.

Chorus:
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Younder comes a sucker and he's got my gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I bid her my last fairwell.

Now I won't cry my life away
Some other sucker will have to pay
And when he finds that she is gone
I guess I'll hear him sing this song.

Chorus:
Railroad, steamboat, river and canal
Younder comes a sucker and he's got my gal
And she's gone, gone, gone
And she's gone, gone, gone
And I bid her my last fairwell...
