When I change my living standard and move uptown,
Bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.
Well so, so long, my honey, so long.
I guess I'm gonna make it OK.
I'll see you in the funny papers some old day,
So long, my honey, so long.
Well, I get the feeling I could chase you clean on in the ball
And wind up staying pull off, put down strung out and stalled.
I ain't got time to wait on you or to fetch your super-ball,
I've got lots of things I've got to do.
Bye, bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.

'Cause I could use some company
Right on this road, up on this road I'm on today, yeah hey yeah!
Well, I know that you got things to do and places to be
And I guess I'll have to find the thing you placed on me
I may wind up in the street or sleep beneath a tree,
Still I guess you know honey I've gotta go.
Bye, bye-bye, baby, bye-bye.
Lord, I might've been your wife,
But you settled for a place right in my heart,
You didn't want a place in my life.
So, so long, my honey, so long.
I guess you know you're on your own,
It seems you just got lost somewhere out in the world
And you left me here to face it all alone,
You left me here to face it all alone,
You left me here to face it all alone, yeah hey yeah,
I said bye, bye bye bye baby, baby bye-bye, waah!!
This is a, a real old tune we used to do a lot, still really care
for it. The guys got it off off a guy named Moondog in-a the streets
of New York. This is, this beautiful cat who writes poetry and is blind
and he looks like a Viking, stands on the corner of 55th and-a 5th Avenue,
something like that. 6th Avenue ? He just stands there selling poetry
and wearing horns on his head and he's too much and he wrote this song
called All Is Loneliness. Really dredging up the past tonight, folks!
All Is Loneliness
All is loneliness
Loneliness here for me

When I waited for my baby.
You know I open my front door,
I said Mr. Loneliness is waiting for me at home
Lordy, Lord at home, Lord at home, Lo-o-o-rd at home.
You know, I get home every day, Lord,
There ain't nobody waiting there, man
And I ain't got no girlfriends, and I ain't got no boyfriends, man.
I ain't got no any kind of friends, man, I ain't got no...
My TV set doesn't work, my radio doesn't work, man.
I come home there's nothing
Nothing, man, there's no animals moving,
There's nothing, man
Walk in that door seems like I'm sitting there every day, man.
Piece of My Heart
Didn't I make you feel like you were the only man, yeah,
An' didn't I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can ?
Honey, you know I did!
And each time I tell myself that I, well I've just had enough,
But I'm gonna show you, baby, that a woman can be tough.
I said come on, come on, come on, come on and take it,
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby,
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah.
Hey! Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, yeah.
You know you got it if it makes you feel good,
Oh yes indeed.
All right!
You're out on the street looking good, honey,
Deep down in your heart I said you know that it ain't right,
Never never never never never never hear me when I cry at night.
Honey, I cry all the time!
And each time I tell myself that I, well I can't stand the pain,
But when you hold me in your arms, I'll sing it once again.
I'll say come on, come on, come on, come on and take it!
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby.
Break another little bit of my heart now, darling, yeah,
Have another little piece of my heart now, baby, yeah.
