Say Goodbye and Adieu
I've been feeling kind of restless
With a hankerin' to roam
I'll take a tack off the beaten track
And say goodbye to my home
I'll head off for the desert
Or drive off towards the sea
Ride a plane into Spain
Or maybe Italy
Wherever I disembark
Wherever I arrive
I will smile, for a while
And try to stay alive
Being human is harder than it looks
And easier than it seems
So much of life is filled with strife
And death is just like a dream
(chorus)
Ho-dee, ho-dee
a ho-dee-lay-dee-hee
Seems trouble is on the double
And it's coming after me
Ho-dee, ho-dee
a ho-dee-lay-dee-hoo
By and by, I will fly
And say goodbye and adieu
Ho-dee, hey there
And a wacka-wacka-woo
Love is blind from behind
If you let me I'll let you
I wonder if I'll meet a gal
And if she'll love me true
If she'll let me rub her feet
And maybe sniff her shoe
Perhaps she will answer
The questions of my heart
If push comes to shove, from god above
Why did the good lord make farts?
I know some won't think it fair
To question my woman so
It won't matter, I'm a mad hatter
If you really have to know
(chorus)
Ho-dee, ho-dee
a ho-dee-lay-dee-hee
Seems trouble is on the double
And it's coming after me
Ho-dee, ho-dee
a ho-dee-lay-dee-hoo
By and by, I will fly
And say goodbye and adieu
Ho-dee, hey there
And a wacka-wacka-woo
Love is blind from behind
If you let me I'll let you
Someday a dark rider will appear
And gallop into my view
Silently pointing me
To finally get a clue
You only get a little while
And then you get no more
Times up, drain your cup
And then head right out the door
But I will not fear that day
I will hold that rider close
If I'm going down I'm kidnapping that clown
And heading for the coast
(chorus)
Ho-dee, ho-dee
a ho-dee-lay-dee-hee
Seems trouble is on the double
And it's coming after me
Ho-dee, ho-dee
a ho-dee-lay-dee-hoo
By and by, I will fly
And say goodbye and adieu
Ho-dee, hey there
And a wacka-wacka-woo
Love is blind from behind
If you let me I'll let you
Love is blind from behind
If you let me I'll let you
