Goodbye Girl
She's headin' down the mountain
Footloose and fancy-free
On her way to Boston where the city meets the sea
With nothing but an ocean, she'd like to see the world
Sail around the ocean, gotta be goodbye girl
Goodbye girl, got everything she needs goodbye girl
Goodbye girl, she knows she's gonna be goodbye girl
.
Her mama used to tell her "Don't rush to settle down"
"If you got the urge for goin', let it take you town to town"
"The world is your oysters, so you better find those pearls
"And I will always love you, farewell and goodbye, girl"
Goodbye girl, go chasin' down a dream
Goodbye girl, got everything she needs goodbye girl
Goodbye girl, she knows she's gonna be my goodbye girl
..
You say you'd like to know her and she thinks you're alright
But you'll be a hundred miles from here this time tomorrow night
So if you'd like to join her, she'll take you for the world
But you gotta love leavin' when you're with goodbye girl
Goodbye girl, nothing's gettin' between with a goodbye girl
Goodbye girl, got everything she needs goodbye girl
Goodbye girl, she knows she's gonna be goodbye girl...
