Del Barber - Farewell, God Bless You, Goodbye Lyrics

There's pigeons living on a window sill
I think I've finally had my fill
It's time to give this city my goodbye
There's only so much money a man can lose

Aching that his reasons will turn to proof
That someday love might not leave me dry
Tell me friend can you hear me howl
I'm on the highway with a crooked smile

You know I'm looking for the starry sky
Farewell, God bless you, goodbye
I headed north with the winter wind
Got an honest job working for a cattleman

It seems that with his age he might need me some
I think I'll stay here as long as I can
But I know it's only a matter of when
Maybe you could come and see me before that time
