Goodbye Stranger (Live from The El Rey Theatre)

[Verse 1]

Was an early morning yesterday

I was up before the dawn

And I really have enjoyed my stay

But I must be moving on

[Refrain]

Like a king without a castle

Like a queen without a throne

I'm an early morning lover

And I must be moving on

[Verse 2]

Now, I believe in what you say

Is the undisputed truth

But I have to have things my own way

To keep me in my youth

[Refrain]

Like a ship without an anchor

Like a slave without a chain

Just the thought of those sweet ladies

Sends a shiver through my veins

And I will go on shining, shining like brand new

I'll never look behind me, my troubles will be few

[Chorus]

Goodbye, stranger, it's been nice

Hope you'll find your paradise

Tried to see your point of view

Hope your dreams will all come true

Goodbye, Mary, goodbye, Jane

Will we ever meet again?

Feel no sorrow, feel no shame

Come tomorrow, feel no pain

[Post-Chorus]

Sweet devotion, it's not for me

Just give me motion and set me free

In the land and the ocean, far away

It's the life I've chosen, every day

So, goodbye, Mary, goodbye, Jane

Will we ever meet again?

[Verse 3]

Now, some they do and some they don't

And some you just can't tell

And some they will and some they won't

With some, it's just as well

[Refrain]

You can laugh at my behavior, that'll never bother me

Say the devil is my savior, but I don't pay no heed

And I will go on shining, shining like brand new

I'll never look behind me, my troubles will be few

[Chorus]

Goodbye, stranger, it's been nice

Hope you'll find your paradise

Tried to see your point of view

Hope your dreams will all come true

Goodbye, Mary, goodbye, Jane

Will we ever meet again?

Feel no sorrow, feel no shame

Come tomorrow, feel no pain

[Post-Chorus]

Sweet devotion, it's not for me

Just give me motion and set me free

In the land and the ocean, far away

It's the life I've chosen, every day

So now I'm leaving, got to go

Hit the road, I'll say it once again

Oh yes, I'm leaving, got to go

Got to go, I'm sorry, I must tell you

Goodbye, Mary, goodbye, Jane

Will we ever meet again?
