lyrics

So long city boy
You sleep your dream you dream your joy
The sun goes up your blinds go down
I'll never catch you hanging 'round

So long music man
I sing your sad sad song just as loud as I can
You only had one trick up your sleeve
You played it over and over then you asked me to leave
You asked me to leave

So long eagle I'd
Follow you out but I'd have to learn to fly
The sun goes down, you go down too
I never breathed a sigh so blue
A sigh [sigh] so blue, a sigh so blue, a sigh so blue

So long flower girl
You spent too long staring into the world
Petals are wilting, the lovers are falling
Into each others arms and you can hear your mother calling
Please come home, oh please come home, oh please come home
