Goodbye-ee! Lyrics by Various Artists

Oh! What a Lovely War (1969) Film Soundtrack

0

Brother Bertie went away
To do his bit the other day
With a smile on his lips
And his lieutenant pips
Upon his shoulder bright and gay

As the train moved out he said
'Remember me to all the birds'
Then he wagged his paw
And went away to war
Shouting out these pathetic words:

Goodbye-ee, goodbye-ee
Wipe the tear, baby dear, from your eye
Though it's hard to part, I know
I'll be tickled to death to go
Don't cry, don't sigh
There's a silver lining in the sky
Bonsoir, old thing
Cheerio, chin-chin
Nap-poo, toodle-oo, goodbye-ee

Brother Bertie went away
To do his bit the other day
With a smile on his lips
And his lieutenant pips
Upon his shoulder bright and gay

As the train moved out he said
'Remember to all the birds'
Then he wagged his paw
And went away to war
Shouting out these pathetic words:

Goodbye-ee, goodbye-ee
Wipe the tear, baby dear, from your eye
Though it's hard to part, I know
I'll be tickled to death to go
Don't cry, don't sigh
There's a silver lining in the sky
Bonsoir, old thing
Cheerio, chin-chin
Nap-poo, toodle-oo, goodbye-ee

Goodbye-ee, goodbye-ee
Wipe the tear, baby dear, from your eye
Though it's hard to part, I know
I'll be tickled to death to go
Don't cry, don't sigh
There's a silver lining in the sky
Bonsoir, old thing
Cheerio, chin-chin
Nap-poo, toodle-oo, goodbye
