STEP STONE

I stood on my step stone when school days were o'er
Longed for the time to go by
Now it is gone and I stand here tonight
On this, my old step stone at home.

chorus:
Goodbye to my step stone, Goodbye to my home
God bless the ones that I leave with a sigh.
Fields will be whitened and I will be gone
To ramble this wide world alone.

It's hard to be parted from those that we loved
When reverses in fortunes have come
The world's strongest heartstrings are broken in twain
With the absence of loved ones and home.

I stand on my step stone at evenin' time now
The wind rushes by with a moan
Now it is gone and I stand here tonight
On this, my old step stone and home.
