Going away from here, Leaving without a tear. Things may seem so gray, until another day. So I will journey from here leaving without a tear. My bags are packed for good to stay? I never would. The days, they seem so long, the nights, they seem so wrong. My bags are packed for good, to stay? I never would. Mary, I'm leaving you. John, he won't make you blue. No more dances to attend. No more jobs to mend. Mary, I'm leaving now; you'll get along somehow. So I got on the train rolling on thru the rain, Then I thought of the town leaving with engine sounds. So I got off the train walked back home with the rain. Was later put to music by Artie Turco.
