(GOO' BYE!) Words and Music By Gus Kahn, Ernie Erdman,and Dan Russo (1922) Yesterday I heard a lover sigh, "Goodbye, oh me, oh my." Seven times he got a board his train... And seven times he hurried back To kiss his love again and tell her: "Toot, toot, tootsie, goo' bye! Toot, toot, tootsie don't cry The choo choo train that takes me, Away from you no words can tell How sad it makes me. Kiss me, tootsie and then, Do it over again, Watch for the mail, I'll never fail, If you don't get a letter then you'll know i'm in jail. Tut, tut, tootsie don't cry, toot, toot, tootsie, goo' bye!" (faster) "Toot, toot, tootsie, goo' bye! Toot, toot, tootsie don't cry The choo choo train that takes me, Away from you no words can tell How sad it makes me. Kiss me, tootsie and then, Do it over again, Watch for the mail, I'll never fail, If you don't get a letter then you'll know i'm in jail. Tut, tut, tootsie don't cry, toot, toot, tootsie, goo' bye!" |
