Song lyrics

We left our southern homes
And wandered north to roam
Like birds, went seekin' a brand new field of corn
We don't know why we are here
But we're up here just the same
And we are just the lonesomest
Girls that's ever born

Some of these days we are going far away [2x]

Where we have got a lot of friends
And don't have no roof rent to pay
Oh, there'll come a day when from us you'll hear no news
Oh, there'll come a day when from us you'll hear no news

Then you will know that we have died from
Those lonesome far away blues
