Bye-bye country boy
You've been a joy, a shiny toy
Glad we played our County Fair
I'm glad you came to see me there
I sang that song, looked right at you
You came backstage like I knew you'd do
It's a doggone shame our week is through
Bye-bye country boy, sweet shy country boy
♪
Bye-bye country boy
In Sunday clothes, you brought a rose
Love the hot-rod moonlight spins
Sleepy roomy country inns
Your voice sends my world aways
Our sunny laughing picnic days
You've been a joy, a shiny toy

Bye-bye country boy
I've got to go, it's closing show
Still think I'm some kind of a star
Shows how hazy dumb you are
If you'd just say, "Hey, stick around"
I'd tell my group, "I ain't leavin' town"
But you don't dream I'd settle down
Bye-bye country boy, sweet shy country boy
♪
Bye-bye country boy
I've got to pack, I can't look back
Don't come around to say goodbye
Mustn't see a big star cry
Once I'm home in old L.A.
My heart and mind will be miles away
Still wishing you had made me stay
