"'Goodbye Little Darlin', Goodbye'" (also known as "'Goodby Little Darlin'") is a song co-written and originally recorded by Gene Autry. Autry sang it in the 1939 movie 'South of Border,' and in April 1940 released it on a 78 rpm record.
The song would be notably recorded by Johnny Cash.
The song was recorded by Cash at Sun Records probably on December 13, 1956, and released as a single (Sun 331, with "You Tell Me" on the opposite side) in September 1959,
when he had already left the label for Columbia.
