Back Back Back To Indiana
Composer(s): Gus Kahn - Egbert Van Alstyne



Oh! don't you hear that whistle blowing! 
Oh, oh, oh, Goodbye! the North bound train will soon be going! 
Oh, oh, oh, I've been lonesome down in Dixie
Just as lonesome as a boy could be
And if your girl lived along the Wabash you'd be singing just like me!

I'll be so happy in the morning 
Oh, oh, oh, Because I'll see the town that I was born in! 
Oh, oh, oh, There a lonely girl is waiting
But I'll make her mighty happy soon
And again we'll roam along the Wabash 'neath the Indiana moon

Back, back, back to Indiana! 
Where the Wabash flows
To my Hoosier Rose 
Back, back, through the fields of clover
We'll drive down to town and bring the parson over
So long old Savanah
You're a good old town, I know! 
But the best thing here, is the first train, dear
Back, back, back to Indiana!
