I know you're leavin' babe goodbye and so long I hope someday somebody listens to your song Those bright lights never ever spell your name it's true Maybe a change it seem would be the best for you Ah so long babe so long babe so long babe so long babe so long babe I know you're leavin' babe goodbye and so long Pick up the pieces and go back where you belong You gave 'em all you had what did they give you
They gave you nothin' babe so give 'em nothin' too ah so long babe [horns + strings] I know you're leavin' babe goodbye and so long You never made it babe I wonder what went wrong They never understood your songs here's what you do Just walk away and leave 'em let 'em come to you Ah so long babe so long babe so long babe so long babe so long babe
