[Verse 1]
He's waitin' for some rain to fall
He's waitin' for the mail to come
He's waitin' for the dawn again
Old man on the farm

[Verse 2]
Milk the cow, slop the pigs
Sweepin' out the chicken house
Drinkin' whiskey in the barn

[Chorus]
Goodnight ladies
Sorry if I stayed too long
So long, it's been good to know you
I love the way I sing that song
So long, it's been good to know you
I love the way I sing that song
