Well you say we are through and for me to me move on
But tell me sweet mama will you cry when I'm gone
Are you sure you mean it when you tell me to fly what I want to know is this goodbye
Oh after I leave you will you follow me around fightin' and fussin' all over this town
Are you gonna be happy or will you cry what I want to know is this goodbye
Now you know you've said this many times before
When your money runs out you're bangin' on my door
Are you gonna be good or try to black my eye what I want to know is this goodbye
Like a stubborn mule you always change your mind
Will the weather be fair or will it rain all the time
Will the lightenin' strike when me'n my blonde walks by
What I want to know is this goodbye
Now baby you know I always aim to please for I want your little heart to be at ease
I don't want no dynamite fallin' from the sky what I want to know is this goodbye
