Goodbye, Red Songtext
von Sonny Boy Williamson

Well, goodbye Red
Now, I ain′t gon' cry
Now, goodbye Red
Now, I ain′t gonna cry
Well now, I ain't gonna frown
I wouldn't tell you no lie

Well, my little Red
She just don′t know
Well-a my little Red
She just don′t know
Well now, she says she loves me
She's wild about Mr. So and So

Well, I ain′t gonna worry
About the way you do
Well, the way you treat me
Comin' back home to you
Well, I ain′t gonna worry
Red, about the way you do now


Well, I ain't gonna frown
I ain′t gonna make no noise
Now, I ain't gonna frown
I ain't gonna make no noise
Well, I ain′t gonna bring
You′ll have none-a-these Santa toys

Well, I waved my hand
Red, shook her head
I waved my hand
Red, shook her head
Well, I'm sick an tired of Red
Gonna go to bed

Now tell me, Red
What you want me to do?
Now look-it-here, Red
What you want me to do, now?
Now do you think I can love you
And be yo′ little dog, too now?

Well, after a while
Be all over, now
Well, after a while
Be all over, now
Now because didn't have nobody
Raise no sand, now how.


Well, fare you well
Well, fare you well
Red, fare you well
Now, little girl
Well now, I thought you loved me
But I take you for my pal.
