Summer Days Alone (Stuart Gotz) - The Brothers Four

I’m walking down the track

Got the sun behind my back

Why do the hours pass so slo-o-ow?

What if I had my way

See my girl on Saturday

But I’m too many miles from my home

How I hate to spend these summer days alone

Well I Harriet (?) to see my little darling

Though never never again

When they found me riding on the freight car

Well they put me off of that train

At the first of every day

I start out another way

With not a soul to care how far I roam

Well it’s always the same

No money knows my name

And I haven’t got a place to call my own

How I hate to spend these summer days alone

Well I wanna go back to my loved one

I wanna go home to stay

How I miss her in the morning and the evening

Oh I miss her on the late of the long day (?)

So I’m walking down the track

Got the sun behind my back

Why do the hours pass so slo-o-ow?

What if I had my way

See my girl on Saturday

But I’m too many miles from my home

How I hate to spend these summer days alone

Tell me why did I decide to leave my home
