verse 1: I want one for the highway,
 I want two for the road,
 Three for my baby,
 That someone else done stole.
 Since my baby been gone,
 I just can't go on,
 I'm leaving here today,
 Ain't no use to stay.
 Bridge: If anything happens to me,
 No matter how strange it'll be,
 Just make sure that I'm seen,
 In my hometown, New Orleans.
 Chorus: Bye, baby, bye bye,
 I said, bye bye, baby, goodbye,
 It hurts I understand,
 That you got a fine, ol' man
 Solo: (saxophone)
 Bridge: If anything happens to me,
 So strange it could be,
 Just make sure that I'm seen,
 In my hometown, New Orleans.
 Chorus: I said bye bye, baby, bye,
 Oh, bye bye, baby, bye.
 You know it hurts I understand,
 That you lost a real fine man.
