Goodbye momma goodbye to you too pa
(OPEN )
Little sister you'll have to wait a while to come along
Goodybye to this house and all it's memories
(OPEN )
We just got too old to say we're wrong
(OPEN )
Got to make one last trip to my bedroom
(OPEN )
Guess I'll have to leave some stuff behind
(OPEN )
It's funny how the same old crooked pictures
(OPEN )
Just don't seem the same to me tonight
There ain't no use in sheding lonely tears mamma
(OPEN )
There ain't no use in shouting at me pa
I can't live no longer with your fears mamma
(OPEN )
I love you but that hasn't helped at all
(OPEN )
Each of us must do the things that matter
(OPEN )
All of us must see what we can see
(OPEN )
It was long ago you must remember
(OPEN )
You were once as young and scared as me
I don't know how hard it is yet mamma
(OPEN )
When you relaize you're growning old
I know how hard is not to be younger
(OPEN )
I know you've tried to keep me from the cold
(OPEN )
Thanks for all you done it may sound hollow
(OPEN )
Thank you for the good times that we've known
(OPEN )
But I must find my own road now to follow
(OPEN )
You will all be welcome in my home
Got my suitcase I must go now
(OPEN )
I don't mind about the things you said
I'm sorry Mom I don't know where I'm going
(OPEN )
Remember little sister look ahead
(OPEN )
Tomorrow I'll be in some other sunrise
(OPEN )
Maybe I'll have someone at my side
(OPEN )
Mamma give your love back to your husband
(OPEN )
Father you've have taught we well goodbye
Goodbye Mamma goodbye to you too pa
