Lyrics
It's a long way to my sweetheart
It's a long way to go
It's a long way to my sweetheart
Oh, so far I can't go
It's a long way to my darlin'
It's a long way to go
It's a long way to my baby
Oh, so far I can't go
And every time she's around
I'm the coolest guy in town
She makes me sing like a nightingale
And every time she is here
Oh there's music in the air
My love for her is not for sale
It's a long way to my sweetheart
It's a long way to go
It's a long way to my baby
Oh, to my baby go go
And every time she's around
She's the coolest girl in town
Oh she sings like a nightingale
And every time she is here
Oh there's music in the air
My love for her is not for sale
It's a long way to my sweetheart
It's a long way to go
It's a long way to my baby
Oh, to my baby go go
Oh, to my baby go go
Oh, to my honey go go
Oh, to my baby doh doh
