John Hartford - Bye-Bye 歌词

Bye bye singer in the Illinois roadway, pierstown levy and the ice cream show,
bye bye nights at the St Louis brewery, old street car and ya gotta go, bye bye.

Bye bye nights in the missisipi churchtower, laying out beds by the old fence post,
bye bye days of living in the country, see which one you like the most, bye bye.

Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye guess ya gotta go! x 2

Hopalong bank of the Ohio river, wish that time would never end,
someone said its such bad luck to watch a boat go round the bend, bye bye.

Well the past goes past in sepia vapour way long ago in the misty must, old postcards in the 1890s, pick Bo Peep and save her blust (?) bye bye.

Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye guess ya gotta go! x 2

Well I got no house no place to go soon be here as Minnesota goin' bye bye.
Mama your daughter aint never been the same since she found out looks mean more than brains and said bye bye!

Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye guess ya gotta go! x 2

Bye bye mother and bye bye daughter take care God bless and you can't go wrong,
Bye bye sons on field of honour hands-a-clappin' hard to go away so long (?) bye bye.

After bye bye what else is there, oh bye bye so long farewell,
Bon voyage on the canyon trip, adios get lost or go to hell, bye bye.

Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye guess ya gotta go! x 2

Well I'm here to make extreme calculations (Or well I'm here to mix drinks and calculations?), only the facts and vibrations going bye bye,
Well I wanna be consistent, that's where its at, make sure my socks don't never match going bye bye!

Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye guess ya gotta go! x 2

Solo

Bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye guess ya gotta go! x 2
