OK Woody, You wouldn't tell me about that guy
So I did some research myself.
This verse, titled "Antigonish" was written by William Hughes Mearns in 1899. William Hughes Mearns, better known as Hughes Mearns (1875-1965) was an American Educator and Poet. He wrote two books which are credited for fueling the educational trend of creative writing. A longer version of this poem, found on en.wikiquote.org starts and ends with the verse you cited but has this verse in between: "When I came home last night at three/The man was waiting there for me/
But when I looked around the hall/I couldn't see him there at all!/Go away, go away, don't you come back any more!/Go away, go away, and please don't slam the door... (slam!)"

This is my Identa version

But when I looked around the hall/I couldn't see any 2Q Financials at all!/Go away, go away, don't you come back any more!/cause the PPS sucks, and morales on the floor. Go away, go away, and please don't slam the door... (slam!)" Ouch ! My finger! 3Q is now here, with its promise of more PRs.
