Mickey Jay went away exactly seven years today Returned to find his missis with a family of five She said, 'Ted, cousin Ted, heard a rumour you were dead That's the truth now, Mickey Boy, as sure as I'm alive I'll see you some other time not now My other man will soon be home and so to save a row,' Chorus: Say Good-bye, say Good-Bye For goodness sakes say Good-bye If my old man comes home to tea And finds you here what will happen to me? It's seven years since I saw you last My word how the time does fly If you want to kiss me Mick you must get it over quick And for goodness sakes say Good-bye. Mick said, 'Jane, dear old Jane, now that I've come home again I've got lots of money and I want you, yes, I do.' She said, 'Mick, dear old Mick, I know you're acting like a brick But don't you understand, old dear, our love affair is through You stand there looking like a silly goat Go back to where you've come from please And catch the quickest boat.' Chorus 1: Say Good-bye, say Good-Bye For goodness sakes say Good-bye If my old man comes home to tea And finds you here what will happen to me? Here's the kids coming home from school My word how the time does fly Why look, here's your eldest Mad, Come and shake hands with your Dad And for goodness sakes say Good-bye. Chorus 2: Say Good-bye, say Good-Bye For goodness sakes say Good-bye If my old man comes home to tea And finds you here what will happen to me? He weighs sixteen stone or more And he stands just six feet high They'll be a funeral as well And the flowers we won't smell So for goodness sakes say Good-bye. |
