FORGIVE, GOOD-BYE, ODESSA-MOTHER | SOME OF THESE DAYS |
Forgive, good-bye, Odessa-mother, I do not forget your wonderful view And the Black Sea, stubbornly Waves breaking on your granite. | Life is a book so they say Of records on each page I turned my first leaf when I went upon the stage The road was rough and it was tough Especially for a girl alone Heartaches, sighing, nights of crying For my folks at home Why I remember Way back when Way back when I was a young Connecticut lass I was just as green as grass And lots of nerve, no class And the men I met then They were some sweet bunch That a star they'd make me Right away they tried to date me But I had a giddish hunch Then there came a day for a job pay I wondered if I'd make it Only twenty things But when your broke it seems a fortune And you take it And then there came along one fine song |
Your gardens and parks gamma,[1] Where my youth was flowing, Forgive, good-bye, Odessa-mother, Thank you for giving me birth! | I hope you'll never forget to remember me When you hear |
Forgive, good-bye, Odessa-mother, I do not forget your wonderful view And the Black Sea, stubbornly Waves breaking on your granite. | Some of these days You'll be so lonely Some of these days You'll miss me honey You'll miss my huggin' You're gonna miss my kissin' You're gonna miss me honey When I'm far away |
Your gardens and parks gamma, Where my youth was flowing, Forgive, good-bye, Odessa-mother, Thank you for giving me birth! | I feel so lonely for you only 'Cause you know honey You'll have your way And when you leave me You know it's gonna grieve me Gonna miss your big fat mama Your mama Some of these days Some of these days You'll miss me honey Some of these days You're gonna be so lonely You'll miss my huggin' You're gonna miss my kissin' You're gonna miss me honey When I'm far away |
Your gardens and parks gamma, Where my youth was flowing, Forgive, good-bye, Odessa-mother, Thank you for giving me birth! Thank you for giving me birth! Thank you for giving me birth! | Then I'll be so lonely for you only 'Cause you know honey You had your way And when you leave me You know it's gonna grieve me Gonna miss your big fat mama Your mama Some of these days. |
