Goodbye (Astrid, Goodbye) (2011 remastered) Songtext
von Cold Chisel

Watch out!

Open up the door, Astrid, ′cause I'm comin′ down the stairs
And I ain't gonna listen to no more pissin' around
I′ve had seven long years of give a little, take a little, stack a little money away
And you better believe it, gonna take this love to town

Turn on the tears, Astrid, and don′t forget to let the neighbours see
What a low-down deal you got when you married me
And you can drown your days in Valium and brandy, talkin' to the cat and the dog
You can shove your cheap French vogue society

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye now babe, I won′t be back for long
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye now babe, I won't be comin′ back for long

Oh, guitar!


Well, yeah, open up the door, Astrid, and don't you try to get in my way
I′m heading from a long, long night to a better day
And don't bother offering to drive me to the station
You'll only drive me ′round the bend
We′re comin' to the end, there′s nothin' left to say
′Xcept this baby

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye now babe, I won't be back for long
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye now babe, I won′t be comin' back for long
I won't be back, babe

Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye now babe, I won′t be back for long
I won′t be back
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye now babe, I won't be comin′ back for long
I'm not comin′ home, baby, whoo!
