Two sweethearts in a country town, the neighbors say
Lived happily the whole day long
Until one day he told her he must go away
She wondered then what could be wrong
He said "You know it's true, I love you best of all
And yet it's best that we should part."
Just as he went away, they heard his girlie say
Though it 'most broke her heart:

Some of these days
You'll miss me, honey
Some of these days
You're gonna feel so lonely
You'll miss my huggin'
You'll miss my kissin'
You'll miss me, honey
When you go away

I feel so lonely
Just for you only
For you know, honey
I let you have your way
And when you leave me
You know it will grieve me
I'll miss my little dad-dad-daddy
Yes, some of these days
Some of these days
You'll miss me, honey
Some of these days
You'll feel so lonely
You'll miss my huggin'
You'll miss my kissin'
You'll miss me, honey, honey
When you go away

I'm gonna feel so lonely
Just for you only
For you know, honey
I let you have your way
And when you leave me
You know it will grieve me
But you're gonna miss your little brown skin mama
Yeah, some of these days
