Goodnight y’all - I’m leaving,
Got to dance til the morning light,
Old midnight come a teasing,
And we always been tight,
She make time stand still,
Drinking whiskey,
Like the fool on the hill,
Goodnight y’all - I’m leaving,
I’m leaving -
Goodnight.

Goodnight y’all - I’m leaving,
Put that laughter on my tab,
Bartender, please remember,
The good times that we had,
Oh there’s a rhythm in the air,
Full of wisdom,
And a little devil may care,
Goodnight y’all - I’m leaving,
I’m leaving -
Goodnight.

Well there’s a rhythm in the air,
Full of wisdom,
And a little devil may care,
Goodnight y’all - I’m leaving,
Yeah goodnight y’all - I’m leaving,
Mmm goodnight y’all - I’m leaving,
I’m leaving -
Goodnight.

I remember,
The afternoons of make believe and
Music,
Oh how we’d sing and shout!
And I’m wondering,
How long before we’ll all be leaving,
Every time that I’m in your house.

I can hear it,
The symphony of pots and pans and
Father,
As quiet as a mouse,
Please forgive me,
The way that I still clitter clatter,
Every time that I’m in your house.

Guess it’s only,
Another four walls and a staircase,
I know,
It’s time that I got out,
But Mother,
Your voice is in the walls of this place,
Every time that I’m in your house.
