Goodbye Jim & Jackie, goodbye John & May

We hate to see you leaving, bound for the USA

But if you don't believe your country should come before yourself

Ya can better serve your country, by living somewhere else



I know the times are changing, factories closing down

But if you stay and help us, we can turn these things around

But if you don't believe your country should come before yourself

Ya can better serve your country, by living somewhere else



And while our politicians, divde our presious land

We speak in French & English, but they still don't understand

If you don't believe your country should come before yourself

Ya can better serve your country, by living somewhere else



In a land that's short on heros, they trade our jobs away

And we don't need no zeros to come and help us save the day

So if you don't believe your country should come before yourself

Ya can better serve your country, by living somewhere else



And if you should find your heaven, where stars & stripes are flown

You'll learn to stand more proudly, than you ever stood back home

And they'll tell you that your country, must come before yourself

Or you'll have to serve your country by living somewhere else



So goodbye Jim & Jackie, goodbye John & May

We hope that you'll be happy, living in the USA

Cause if you don't believe your country should come before yourself

Ya can better serve your country, by living somewhere else



If you don't believe your country should come before yourself

Ya can better serve your country, by living somewhere else
