Jimmy climbs on board of that old yellow bus,
It sure looks big in his little eyes.
His mama waits as her tears kick up the dust.
It's never easy to say goodbye.
Julie Raye in her pearl white wedding gown
Has found her wigns and its time to fly
It's all her dad can do to keep from breakin down
It's never easy to say goodbye

Chourus
It aint easy, to ever say goodbye
It aint easy lettin go of the ones you love
But belive me we'll meet again by and by
If not here somewhere up above.

Ive had friends that ive lost along the way
They've been called on down the line
Though their time was short
I still think bout them everyday
It aint easy to say good bye

Chourus
It aint easy, to ever say goodbye
It aint easy lettin go of the ones you love
But belive me we'll meet again by and by
If not here somewhere up above.

The time has come to go our seperate ways
And its alright if you wanna cry
Though i know we'll meet again someday
Its never easy to say good bye

Chourus
It aint easy, to ever say goodbye
It aint easy lettin go of the ones you love
But believe me we'll meet again by and by
If not here, somewhere up above
