Goodbye Cleveland

I been down this street once or twice

I played the bars and the blues

Never took no one's advice

To me it's all yesterday's news

And we would drink at old Flannery's

We were drinkin' and drinkin' some more

The clock struck a quarter to three

The cops busted right in the door

Goodbye Cleveland

Turn down the rock and roll, turn out the light

Goodbye Cleveland

Goodbye, good luck and goodnight

She had the rock and the roll

Born with the brass and a style

They took her heart and her soul

She ain't been back in a while

There's Blind Blake and Willie McTell

Albert and Albert and Kaye

There's wankers and bankers in hell

Who'd give it all back just to say

I buried my ma and my pa

I left you some cash on the shelf

I'm goin' down south 'til I thaw

I'll be better off by myself

Goodbye Cleveland

Turn down the rock and roll, turn out the light

Goodbye Cleveland

Goodbye, good luck and...

Goodbye Cleveland

Turn down the rock and roll, turn out the light

Goodbye Cleveland

Goodbye, good luck and goodnight

Goodbye, good luck and goodnight
