Goodbye Cleveland - Robert Earl Keen

I been down this street once or twice

i played the bars and the blues

never took noone’s advice

to me its all yesterday’s news

and we would drink an old flannery

we were drinkin' and drinkin' some more

the clock struck a quarter to three

the cops busted right in the door

(Refrain)

Goodbye Clevland

turn down the rock and roll

turn out the light

Goodbye Clevland

Goodbye, Good luck and goodnight

she had the rock and the roll

born with the brass and the style

they took her heart and her soul

she ain’t been back in a while

theres Blind Blake and Willie McTell

outburn and outburn and can

there’s bankers and wankers in hell

who’d give it all back just to sell

(Refrain)

I buried my ma and my pa

i left you some cash on the shelf

i’m goin' down south 'till I thaw

i’ll be better off by myself

Goodbye Clevland

Turn down the rock and roll turn out the lights

Goodbye Clevland

Goodbye, Goodluck, and Goodbye Cleavland

turn down the rock and roll, turn out the lights

goodby clevland … good bye, goodluck and goodnight

good bye, goodluck and goodnight
