We've already said ‘Goodbye'.
Since you've got to go
Oh you'd better go now.
Go now, Go now
Go now
Before you see me cry
I don't want you to tell me just what you intend to do now.
'Cause how many times do I have to tell you, darling, darling,
I'm still in love with you now?

We've already said ‘So long'
I don't want to see you go.
Oh you'd better go now.
Go now, Go now
Go now
Don't you even try...
Telling me that you really don't want me to end this way
'Cause darling, darling,
Can't you see I want you to stay?

Since you've got to go
Oh you'd better go now.
Go now, Go now
Go now
Before you see me cry.
I don't want you to tell me just what you intend to do now.
'Cause how many times do I have to tell you, darling, darling,
I'm still in love, still in love with you now?

I don't want to see you go
But, darling, you'd better go now.

Can't nobody love you, baby,
Like I'm loving you right now
'Cause they don't know how to love you like I do
And can't nobody talk to you, babe,
Like I'm talking to you right now.
I just don't know how to talk to you like I said I do.

I'm gonna love you in the morning,
I'm gonna love you through the night
And I won't stop loving you, baby,
'Cause this way everything's alright.

Can't nobody love you
Like I'm loving you right now.
They just don't know how to love you like I do.

And, oh love,
Can't nobody kiss you, baby,
Like I'm kissing you right now.
I just don't know how to kiss you like I said I do.

And can't nobody,
Oh, can't nobody love you,
Can't nobody squeeze you,
Can't nobody kiss you like I do,
I just don't know how to talk to you like I said I do.

Now some guys make eyes at you
But they don't do it all the time,
Believe me,
I'd never do it, baby,
But, you know,
No one's on my mind.

Can't nobody love you
Like I'm loving you right now
'Cause they don't know how to love you like I do.

Yeah,
Children speak to me,
Talk...

I'm gonna love you in the morning, baby,
And I'm gonna love you through the night.
I won't stop,
I won't stop loving you, babe,
'Til everything's alright.

Can't nobody love you
Like I'm loving you right now
'Cause they don't know how to love you,
Don't know how to love you like I do.

Oh baby, yeah.
Yeah, 'cause they don;t know how,
They don't know how to love you
Like I said I'll do,
Oh yeah.

I don't mind your love,
I don't mind the one you're thinking of
'Cause I know, baby I know,
You're going to miss me.
I don't mind, he loves you so,
I don't mind, it can't grow cold
'Cause I know, baby I know,
You're going to miss me.

Baby, tell me what you've got to say.

I don't mind, this is all of my song.
I don't mind, goodbye, so long.
'Cause I know, I know,
You're going to miss me.

Baby, can you ever let me go?
You know, you know that I love you so.
Why'd you ever leave me?
Why'd you ever leave me?
Oh, so we will die

I've got a dream
And, every night, I said to myself,
Yeah, I said I gotta share it,
Share the dream with somebody else.
We could make a beautiful day,
Oh baby, it's a beautiful dream
But what am I going to do with it, baby?
Say, what am I going to do with it, baby?
What am I going to do with it, baby,
Well if I can't share it with you?

I got some love
And, baby, it's the kind that will do.
Yeah, I got a kiss
And give it to someone like you.
The moon is shining up above
And I got a heartful of love

But what am I going to do with it, baby?
Say, what am I going to do with it, baby?
What am I going to do with it, baby,
But if I can't give it to you?

I can't throw it in the river
And I can't toss it in the sea
And I can't put it in a paper bag
So, baby, come and get it from me.

I've got a dream
And, every night, I said to myself,
Yeah, I said I gotta share it,
Share the dream with somebody else.
We could make a beautiful day,
Oh baby, it's a beautiful dream

But what am I going to do with it, baby?
Say, what am I going to do with it, baby?
What am I going to do with it, baby,
But if I can't share it...
But if I can't share it...
Well if I can't share it with you?

When I telephone you
Don't make out you're not at home;
It wouldn't hurt at all to answer the call.
When I hold you near,
When I call you ‘dear',
You never seem to want to know me at all.

Oh baby,
Let me go.
If I stay around
Then you're gonna see my heart break.

I can't stand all this heartache

'Cause I love you so,
I find it hard to go,
Well, I can see a change in your ways

'Cause when I'm turning to
How much I think of you
You always look away in a gaze.

Oh baby,
Let me go.
If I stay around
Then you're gonna see my heart break.

I can't stand all this heartache

Like we lost
Every little of love you had for me, baby,
I'm doing, let me go (not sure of this line)
Let me go, let me go, this way,

When I telephone you
Don't make out you're not at home;
It wouldn't hurt at all to answer the call.

And when I hold you near,
When I call you ‘dear',
You never seem to want to know me at all.

Oh baby,
Let me go.
If I stay around
Then you're gonna see my heart break.

And I can't stand all this heartache

You'd better let me go, baby,
Oh you'd better let me go, baby,
Oh yeah, let me go.

So you talked to my girl
When I don't want you to,
Want you to.
Just the thought of you holding her
When I don't want you to,
Want you to
Won't do.
No, no, no,
It won't do, no.
Stop! Stop!
You're trying to break it up between us.
Stop! Stop!
Don't want a broken heart between us.

Oh please, forget about it.
Make your mind up
What you're going to do about us.

So you talk better than me
And you know, you know it, know you know it
And if you want to get her from me
And you know you know it, know you know it,
Won't do, no,
I'm telling you it won't do, no.

Stop! Stop!
You're trying to break it up between us.
Stop! Stop!
Don't want a broken heart between us.

Oh please, forget about it.
Make your mind up
What you're going to do about us.

Stop! Stop!
You're trying to break it up between us.
Stop! Stop!
Don't want a broken heart between us.

Oh please, forget about it.
Make your mind up
What you're going to do about us.

***
(repeat these lines through fadeout)
Stop! Stop!
You're trying to break it up between us.
Stop! Stop!
Don't want a broken heart between us.

And every day I'm gonna say
The little sad man's gonna help me (well, that's what it sounds like to me)
No, every day, I'm gonna say,

I saw my troubles grow,
Grow and grow.

Ain't necessarily so.
Ain't necessarily so.
Things you're liable
To read in a bible
Ain't necessarily so.

Little David he was small, alright,
Yeah, now David he was small alright,
Just like Goliath
Lay dying then he dieth,
Oh he was small, alright.

Little Moses he was found in a stream.
Yeah Moses now he was found in a stream
When that pharoah's sweet daughter
She came by and fished that boy out from the water,
Fished him, she said, from a stream.

Now Jonah now he lived in a whale.
Yeah Jonah he lived in a whale
Yet he made his home in that
Fish's abdomen.
Jonah he lived in a whale.

I said, ain't necessarily so.
No, ain't necessarily so.
The things you're liable
To read in a bible
Ain't necessarily so.
Ain't necessarily so.
No, it ain't necessarily so.

Now listen to me people
'Cause I wanna tell you something.
Every single day
I go on my way
And I won't worry about my baby,
Worry about my girl,
'Cause she's a pretty one.
Yeah, yeah,
Whoa, yeah.

Find me another woman,
My love for her is gone,
And I don't worry about my baby,
Worry about my girl,
Oh yeah.
Just have to tell me true,
Oh yeah.

If she had to do the thing she done
She might have used more tact;
I can't be responsible
For all the love she lacked.

Yeah, yeah.
This is a true story, people.

That's a pretty tune.
I'm a'telling you

'Cause every single day
When I go on my way
I won't worry about my baby,
Yeah, she's in another town, (?)
I'll tell you, baby,
Whoa, yeah.

I wanna give you one or two little tips, yeah.

And then you say ‘Get the suitcases, honey'
