U nfaithful servant, I hear you're leavin' soon in the mornin'
W hat did you do to the lady, that she's gonna have to send you away?
U nfaithful servant, you don't have to say you're sorry,
I f you done it just for the spite, or did you do it just for the glory?
Like a stranger you turned your back,
Left your keep and gone to pack
But bear in mind who's to blame for all the shame
She really cared
The time she spared
And the home you shared
U nfaithful servant, I can hear the whistle blowin',
Y es, that train is a-comin' and soon you'll be a-goin'
N eed us not bow our heads, for we won't be complainin'
L ife has been good to us all, even when that sky is rainin'
To take it like a grain of salt,
Is all I can do and it's no o ne's fault
It makes no diff'rence if we fa de away
It's just as it was
And it's much to cold for me to stay
G oodbye to that country home, so long, lady I have known,
F arewell to my other side, I'd best just take it in stride
U nfaithful servant, you'll learn to find your place
I can see it in your smile, and, yes, I can see it in your face
The mem'ries will linger on,
But the good old days, they 're all gone
Oh, lonesome servant, can't you see,
We're still one and the same
Just you and me
