Tis' sad to be parted from those that we love,
Change faces we see every day.
Each heartstring of mine is broken in twain,
When I think of those dear ones at home.
Goodbye dear old stepstone, goodbye to my home.
God bless those I leave with a sigh.
I'll cherish fond memories when I'm far away,
To roam all this wide world alone.
I stood on my doorstep at evening and more,
The wind whispered by with a moan.
The fields may be whitening; but I will be gone,
To roam all this wide world alone.
I stood on my doorstep when school time was over,
And I wished for the time to go by.
Now it has passed, and I stand here tonight,
To bid this old stepstone goodbye.
Goodbye dear old stepstone, goodbye to my home.
God bless those I leave with a sigh.
I'll cherish fond memories when I'm far away,
To roam all this wide world;
Alone.
