American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
Dan and Teddie's Parting. 
I am bidding you good-bye, Dan, dear, I'm going far away, I'm leaving Ireland far behind, Going to America-Thin you be good to mother, Dan, And little Patsey, too, I'll get work in America, And send for all of you. 
Chorus. Good-bye, Daniel, dear-Teddie, are you leaving? Let your heart be of good cheer, And try and not be grieving. Bear this parting like a man-Teddie, I will try; Good-bye, Daniel-farewell, Teddie, Daniel-Ted-good-bye. 
Our home will be a sad one, Whin you have gone away, And we will watch until a letter Comes across the sea. And mother says her prayer shall be, God speed her own son, Ted; Yes, you'll be always in our mind, Each day we break our day.-Chorus. 
So now I must be leaving you-But, oh! it won't be long-I'll save up every cent I earn, For I am young and strong. And whin I reach America, I'll soon be sending home The money for my brother Dan, To come across the foam.-Chorus.
