Me First and the Gimme Gimmes Follow

Goodbye to you, my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we've climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and A-B-C's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees

Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
Pretty girls are every where
Think of me and I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climb
Were just seasons out of time

Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along

Goodbye, Papa, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that spring is in the air
Little children every where
When you'll see them, I'll be there

We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons, it all gone

We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons, it all gone

Goodbye, Rochelle, my little one
You gave me love and helped me find the sun
And every time that I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground

Goodbye, Rochelle, it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers every where
I wish that we could both be there

We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach
Were just starfish on the beach

We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach
Were just starfish on the beach

We had joy, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons, it all gone

All our lives, we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climb
Were just seasons out of time
