Goodbye Joanna Lyrics

Goodbye, Joanna
You can stay with Sam
Give him your keys, please
Because he's a real good man

Forget me not, love
And leave your family
Though I'm changin' my tune
I sway and hum to the memory

Now I am standing in the field of golden corn
I am looking at the sunset, I am waiting for the dawn
All acquaintances and loves that I have lost
For good old farmer so familiar in the dusk

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

In the orchard where we were babies
First bite tastes so good
I cherish every single essence
Nights are goin' on are gone

You know the fact is always pleasin'
Forgive me if I forget
The people and the reasons
On the hilltop where the music of love
I recall the broken heart strings
The faded photographs, the tears and the laughs
Billy goat, boss swingin' electric jam DJ
And my firefly friend fly away

Goodbye, Joanna
You can stay with Sam
Give him your keys, please
Because he's a real good man
