Deportee
The crops are all in and the peaches are rotting
The oranges are piled in their creosote dumps
You're flying them back to the mexican border
To pay all their money to wade back again
Goodbye to my juan, goodbye rosalita
Adios mis a-mi-gos, jesus and maria
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
All they will call you will be deportee
Some of us are illegal and some of us are not wanted
Our work contract's out and we have to move on
But it's 600 miles to that mexican border
They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like theives
Goodbye to my juan, goodbye rosalita
Adios mis a-mi-gos, jesus and maria
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
All they will call you will be deportee
My father's own father, waded that river
They took all the money he made in his life
My brothers and sister come work the fruit trees
They rode the truck til' they took down and died
The airplane caught fire over los gatos canyon
A fireball of lightning that shook all our hills
Who are these dear friends all scattered like dry leaves
The radio said they were just deportees
Goodbye to my juan, goodbye rosalita
Adios mis a-mi-gos, jesus and maria
You won't have a name when you ride the big airplane
All they will call you will be deportee
No, all they will call you will be deportee
All they will call you will be deportee

And all they will call you will be deportee
Some of us are illegal, and some are not wanted
Our work contracts out and we have to move on
Six hundred miles to the mexican border
They chase us like rustlers, like outlaws, like thieves.
We died in your hills. we died on your deserts.
Weve died in your mountains, and died on your plains.
Weve died neath your trees, and weve died in your bushes.
Both sides of the river, weve died just the same.
Good-bye to my juan, good-bye rosalita
Adios mes amigos, jesus e maria
You wont have a name when you ride the big airplane
And all they will call you will be deportee
The skyplane caught fire over los gatos canyon
A fireball of lightning that shook all our hills
Who were all these dear friends all scattered like dry leaves?
The radio says they were just deportees.
Is this the best way we can grow our big orchards?
And is this the best way we can grow our good fruit?
To fall like dry leaves and rot on the top soil,
And be known by no name except deportee.

Deportee (solo Demo)
In the Arrivederci Roma nightclub, bar and grill
Standing in the fiberglass ruins watching time stand still
All your troubles you confess to another faceless, backless dress
Schnapps, chianti, porter and ouzo
Pernod, vodka, sambuca--I love you so
Deportee
There's a tatty beauty talking in riddles
Rome burns down and everybody fiddles
Deportee
But a thousand dollars won't buy you a Yank, you wife, alas
There's a thousand years of history ground in this chaser glass
And how I wish that she was mine
I could have been the King in Six Eight Time
Deportee
Oh, it's a brittle charm, but she's had enough
Still she wrote her name upon his paper cuff
And you don't where to start or where to stop
All this pillow talk is nothing more than finally talking shop
When I came here tonight my pockets were overflowing
They took my return ticket without me even knowing
Well, I pray to the saints and all the martyrs
For the secret life of Frank Sinatra
But none of these things have come to pass
In America the law is a piece of ass
Deportee
So it's Schnapps, chianti, porter and ouzo
Pernod, vodka, sambuca--I love you so
Deportee

Poor Deportee

I never can say goodbye
No, no, no i, I never can say goodbye
Every time I think Ive had enough

Kissing me right to the core or pericing me right to the core

Something drives me crazy, got to got to get away
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Since youve been around

You treat me like a dirty clown
Youre always kickin my dog around
I never get nothin but constant abuse from you
You couldnt care less what I think, or my point of view
Youre always puttin the make on my friends, always giving
Them eyes and the dirty lies bout me and you, well im
Through, its the end of the line for you babe, heres a
Ticket one way cincinnati, Im sendin you home to your ma
And your daddy, so dont try to call me, youll only be wastin your
Time!
Oh, I know something

Something drives me crazy, got to got to get away

Theres No Goodbye
Made up my mind to say goodbye,
Went to the park for the last time.
But when I saw your eyes,
I knew for the first time,
That theres no goodbye between us.
Theres no goodbye,
Theres no goodbye,
Theres no goodbye between us.
If one day we slip away,
And that may be in the cards,
We will know deep in our hearts
That theres no goodbye between us.
Theres no goodbye,
Theres no goodbye,
Theres no goodbye between us.
Theres no goodbye,
Theres no goodbye,
Theres no goodbye between us.

Late today when it becomes

Excite me now and linger on my mind.

Hope youre feelin better tomorrow night
Dont put up a fight
Itll do you no good
Hello, uncle freedom
Ive seen them down on their knees for you
Nothing they wouldnt do
To have you along
I got too many problems
They just dont understand
They think their every wish is my command
Oh, no, sister susie
Youre in a win or lose affair
Wish I could be there
To help you along
Oh, yes, brother michael
We all have every faith in you
And everything you do
All the way round

They just dont understand

ACT: Goodbye
Girl: Goodbye
I always want to say it in front of you
Goodbye
And there would be no more “I love you”
Goodbye
But why though I really meant to
The pain is still haunting my soul
Guy: Goodbye
You don’t know there’s a mystery inside
Goodbye
You are a fool to quickly decide
Goodbye
When you say something you don’t want to
It will affect you most with regret
Girl: Goodbye means leaving
Guy: Goodbye means nothing
Girl: Goodbye means releasing
Guy: Goodbye means waiting
Girl: And will you forget me after
Guy: Or will I love you forever
Girl: And how if I miss you in the lonely night
Guy: I will torture you to see my face
Girl: It’s over!
Guy: Not yet
Girl: Why are you so stubborn?
Guy: Because you make it complicated
Girl: But there’s no future for us
Guy: There’s always a hope
Girl: Goodbye
I will definitely cry
Goodbye
But the tears are not going to show
Goodbye
I don’t ask to be forgiven
Because I’m the one who put this misery
Guy: Goodbye
You can’t beat me with just that
Goodbye
Don’t judge me because I have the power of
Goodbye
Though I let my beloved go
Someday I’ll bring you to my arm again
Girl: Goodbye means separate
Guy: Goodbye means “I’ll be back”
Girl: Goodbye means finishing
Guy: Goodbye means praying
Girl: And will it make you think
Guy: That you are my precious one
Girl: And when I finally disappear
Guy: That’s the time I realize I’m lost
Girl: Just be a good boy!
Guy: Why should I?
Girl: So I can say farewell
Guy: I won’t let it
Girl: You will be hurt by me
Guy: I’ll hurt more if you leave me
Girl: Goodbye
I will act so rude and cold
Goodbye
You deserved so much better
Goodbye
It’s the easier way to be apart from you
Even it’s full of lie, of lie
Guy: Goodbye
How can I live without you?
Goodbye
I don’t care what other’s said
Goodbye
But you are running away from me
Denying your true feeling
Girl: Goodbye means not anymore
Guy: Goodbye means see you later
Girl: Goodbye means sad ending
Guy: Goodbye means new beginning
Girl: And did I say to you to move on?
Guy: Only you I couldn’t go on
Girl: And someway we have another chance
Guy: I promise that you won’t slip from my fingers

It will be a goodbye
It will be a goodbye
But you are the one who decide
How it ends, how it mends
It will be a goodbye
But you get the final words
How it breaks, how it tracks
It will be a goodbye
But you are to remember
How it songs, how it longs
It will be a goodbye
And you’ll move to another
How it was, how it last

Never Say Goodbye
Never say goodbye,
Never say goodbye,
You say tomorrow's another day,
All i know is we're here today.
I've got nightmares i could never share with you,
The kind that keeps me up all night.
So hold me tight till the room is light
And tell me that it's all right.
(oh-oh-oh-oh-oh - oh-oh-oh)
Never say goodbye,
Never say goodbye,
We may go our separate ways some day,
But we know we shared our dreams today.

The kind that keeps me down all day.
So hold me tight till the sky is light
And tell me that it's all right.

When We Say Goodbye
when we say goodbye
words never end
and tears never stop
when we say goodbye
kisses never enough
and time never tolerates
when we say goodbye
we caught by fear
though we all smiling
when we say goodbye
we want to stay still
but the road slowly moving
why hard to separate
because love too long
or doubt becomes renegade
why drinks never sated
because memories too strong
or loneliness mates
when we say goodbye
hope we meet someday
in another place we never know
when we say goodbye
give hug once more
till we can endure all sorrow

The Last Mall
Attention all shoppers
It's Cancellation Day
Yes the Big Adios
Is just a few hours away
It's last call
To do your shopping
At the last mall
You'll need the tools for survival
And the medicine for the blues
The sweet treats and surprises
For the little buckaroos
It's last call
To do your shopping
At the last mall
We've got a sweetheart Sunset Special
And all of the standard stuff
'Cause in the morningthat gospel morning
You'll have to do for yourself when the going gets tough
Roll your cart back up the aisle
Kiss the checkout girls goodbye
Ride the ramp to the freeway
Beneath the blood orange sky
It's last call
To do your shopping
At the last mall

I Cant Say Goodbye
Written by ricki & kim wilde
I will be there when you call
I will be there
Its so sad
When lovers part
They walk away and break their hearts
Yes Ive had my share of tears
I walked away but now Im here
Cos now that I can see
All the things that youre doing to me
I cant say goodbye
In the night I will be there
I will always stay around
In the day
I will be there when you call
When you call
I will be there when you call
I will be there
If you ever need me baby
I want you to understand
I need you now, I needed you then
Stupid things got in our way
But now Im coming home to stay
Cos now that I can see
All the things that youre doing to me
I cant say goodbye
In the night I will be there
I will always stay around
In the day
I will be there when you call
Never gonna leave you
Now Im gonna stay forever
Cos you know I need you
Never gonna leave you
Now Im gonna stay forever
I cant say goodbye
And you know I tried to walk away
But the feeling deep inside of my soul
Told me to stay
Cos I cant say goodbye
I cant say goodbye
In the night I will be there
I will always stay around
In the day
I will be there if you call
Cos I cant say goodbye

Hello L-O-V-E
Tore out her page from my little black book
Took out her picture, gave it one last look
Hung a big sign out on the door
Saying "Love don't live around here no more"
Packed up what was left of my pride
Topped up the tank for the long hard ride
Seventeen miles out of Loneliville
Yonder came my darlin' in a "Coupe de Ville"
So long heartache - adios
Sorrow see ya later time to hit the road
Goodbye pain and misery
Hello L-O-V-E
Well I spun around then I hit the gas
Hot on the tail of that Cadillac
Said a little prayer, held my breath
Sure enough the green light turned to red
So long heartache - adios
Sorrow see ya later time to hit the road
Goodbye pain and misery
Hello L-O-V-E
She looked at me - I looked at her
A few days later in a little brown church
Made a sweet deal with the justice of the peace
Forty-five dollars for a license and a ring
(Forty-five dollars for a license and a ring)
So long heartache - adios
Sorrow see ya later time to hit the road
Goodbye pain and misery

Easy Money
South of the border and busted,
Caught by a woman I trusted,
Now dont you call me a fool,
It could have happened to you,
Its just my luck,
It had to happen to me.
Sweet carmelita betrayed me
She said, take me home, serenade me.
I figured a song could do me no wrong.
I didnt know how wrong I could be.
Easy money for just one run to peru.
Itll be so easy. well have no trouble gettin through.
Well I almost made it, except for that one border guard.
He opened up my guitar. hello prison yard.
Goodbye easy money. easy money.
The chiquita must have told em my story
cause when my eyes finally focused next morning
Carmelita had spoken bout guitars and some coke
And she laughed as they slapped me in chains.
I was thrown in cell with a killer.
A convict who coughed through the night.
While I laid awake with the chills and shakes,
Hoping for a file in a cake.
Easy money for just one run to peru.
Itll be so easy. well have no trouble gettin through.
Well I almost made it, except for that one border guard.
He opened up my guitar. hello prison yard.
Just to make me mad he smashed my guitar.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye,

Goodbye to This World!
Goodbye to this world which gave my form
As human being and not a worm!
Goodbye to this world with plants so green;
I’m happy with whatev’r, I had seen;
Goodbye to the air, water and soil;
They are polluted, despite my toil;
Goodbye to the joys, sorrows and pain;
I’m glad they can’t trouble me again;
Goodbye to the pangs of hunger, sex,
And problems that can all earthlings vex;
Goodbye to the earthly love, greed, hate,
And emotions that never abate;
Goodbye to affluence, pelf, chaos;
Births, deaths, wars, crimes, suffering and loss;
Goodbye to good deeds, vices and sin;
To friends and foes, strangers, kith and kin;
Goodbye to the sun and moon and stars-
Which never bear ill-will or cause wars;
Goodbye to the beasts and birds that fly;
The Milky Way and cloudy, blue sky;
Goodbye to the world of scams and fraud;
I’m glad I found my one, living God;
Goodbye to my fears, desires all;
I’m lucky to heed my Maker’s call;
Goodbye to the nice earth which God made;
Man spoilt it doing what, God forbade!

Too Late To Say Goodbye
What I had to flaunt
Has come back to haunt
Like a restless wind
And the best of times
That were left behind
They come blowing in
No ones pushing me
Through that door
But it might as well be
A forty-four in the night
Its too late to say goodbye
Im all out of lies
Its too late to say goodbye
How can I resist
One more strangers kiss
Should the thrill be gone
And if I must refrain
Will I wind up the same
As the jealous dogs?
From this day forward
Could be too long
But crossing the border
Would be so wrong, and youre right
Its too late to say goodbye
Ive run out of lies
And its too late to say goodbye
I know that youre right
Its too late to say goodbye
Im all out of lies
Its too late to say goodbye
This feeling wont die
Its too late to say goodbye
I cant watch you cry
Its too late to say goodbye
