All the good times are past and gone

All the good times are o’er

All the good times are past and gone

Little darlin’ don’t you weep no more

I wish to the Lord I’d never been born

Or died when I was young

I never would have seen your sparkling blue eyes

Or heard your lying tongue

Don’t you see that turtle dove

That flies from pine to pine

He’s mourning for his own true love

Just like I mourn for mine

Chorus:

All the good times are past and gone…

Don’t you see that passenger train

Going around the bend

It’s taking away my own true love

To never return again

Come back, come back my own true love

And stay a while with me

For if ever I’ve had a friend in this world

You’ve been a friend to me

Chorus:

All the good times are past and gone…
