Chorus:
Goodnight ladies (three times)
We’re going to leave you now.
As we travel all over this land
There’s one sad thing that we find.
When the wide road calls
You must leave friends and all
Leaving a song behind for a while
Leaving a song behind.
[Chorus]
Some value money, and some value fame.
Some value women and wine
But a song and a friend ‘round each turn of the bend
Are the riches I’d rather were mine every time,
Riches I’d rather were mine.
[Chorus]
When we are gone, may our song linger on
And its echo fall soft on your ear.
May you all live in peace and your riches increase
And your happiness grow every year, my friends,
Happiness grow every year.
[Chorus]
