         That Old Gang of Mine

< instrumental opening > 
 
Gee, but I'd give the world to see 
that old gang of mine! 
I can't forget that old quartet 
that sang "Sweet Adeline!" 
 
Goodbye forever, old fellas an' gals 
goodbye forever, old sweethearts an' pals 
God Bless them! 
 
Gee, but I'd give the world to see 
that old gang of mine! 

< instrumental break > 

 
Gee, but I'd give the world to see 
that old gang of mine!
