Where have you gone
My little boy, little boy
Where have you gone
My sonny my own
Turn around, you're two
Turn around, you're four
Turn around you're a young man
Going out the door
Where have you gone
My little girl, little girl
Pigtails and petticoats
Where have they gone
Turn around, you're young
Turn around, you're grown
Turn around you're a young wife
With babes of your own
Where have they gone
Our little ones, those little ones
Where have they gone
Our children, our own
Turn around, they're young
Turn around, they're old
Turn around, and they've gone
And we've no one to hold
Turn around, they're young
Turn around, they're old
Turn around, they've gone
And we've no one to hold
My little boy, little boy
Where have you gone
My sonny my own
Turn around, you're two
Turn around, you're four
Turn around you're a young man
Going out the door
Where have you gone
My little girl, little girl
Pigtails and petticoats
Where have they gone
Turn around, you're young
Turn around, you're grown
Turn around you're a young wife
With babes of your own
Where have they gone
Our little ones, those little ones
Where have they gone
Our children, our own
Turn around, they're young
Turn around, they're old
Turn around, and they've gone
And we've no one to hold
Turn around, they're young
Turn around, they're old
Turn around, they've gone
And we've no one to hold
