Sitting here with Auntie Nellie, she is so alone 
Talking idly, she's in no hurry, I wish I could go 
But how could I just say, "Goodbye" 
There's no one whom she knows

No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no 
No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no

She's getting old and weary, oh it's such a shame 
'Cos she's been good to everyone 
But now they don't know her name

No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no 
No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no

Sitting here with Auntie Nellie, she is so alone 
Talking idly, she's in no hurry, I wish I could go 
But how could I just say, "Goodbye" 
There's no one whom she knows

No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no 
She's so alone, she'd die if I should go 
No I can't leave my Auntie Nellie, no 
She's so alone, she'd die if I should go.
