Nananananananana Nanananananananana Brother have you got a dime for me I got to get me a ticket out of here And though I'm begging for this change, you see Well my hopes are high and my vision's very clear It was sixty-eight and she was seventeen It was my first love and it was her routine She'll never dream I could Say goodbye I'm gonna think of myself this time and Say goodbye You know I need to belong Say goodbye Somebody, somewhere needs me Say goodbye And I'll leave with a song She's gonna think I've been ungrateful to her And she can justify all the things she did She'll say that I won't get too far without her But you know you can't win Unless you try and make the bid And though the one way out Means I must be alone When I walked out the door I had the feeling I'd grown She should have know I would Say goodbye I'm gonna think of myself this time and Say goodbye You know I need to belong Say goodbye Somebody, somewhere needs me Say goodbye And I'll leave with a song Nanananananananana Nanananananananana Nanananananananana Nanananananananana Say goodbye I'm gonna think of myself this time and Say goodbye You know I need to belong Say goodbye (say goodbye) Somebody, somewhere needs me Say goodbye (say goodbye) And I'll leave with a song
