Hello, Dolly! movie - So Long Dearie lyrics

rate me

<br>

Dolly<br>

[Spoken]<br>

Well, Horace, it looks as if there's nothing more for me to say, but--<br>

[Sung]<br>

Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye.<br>

Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye.<br>

Don't try to stop me Horace please...<br>

Wave your little hand and whisper<br>

So long dearie<br>

You ain't gonna see me anymore<br>

But when you discover that your life is dreary<br>

Don't you come a knockin' at my door<br>

For I'll be all dolled up<br>

And singin' that song<br>

That says you dog, I told you so<br>

So wave your little hand and whisper<br>

So long dearie<br>

Dearie, should have said so long<br>

So long ago<br>

<br>

Because you've treated me so rotten and rough<br>

I've had enough of feelin' low<br>

So wave your little hand and whisper<br>

So long dearie<br>

Dearie would have said so long<br>

So long ago<br>

<br>

For I can hear that choo choo callin' me on<br>

To a fancy new address<br>

Yes, I can hear that choo choo callin' me on<br>

On board that happiness express<br>

I'm gonna learn to dance and drink and smoke a cigarette<br>

I'm go'n as far away from Yonkers as a girl can get<br>

<br>

[Spoken]<br>

And on those cold winter nights, Horace...<br>

You can snuggle up to your cash register.<br>

It's a bit lumpy but it rings!<br>

<br>

[Sung]<br>

Don't come a knockin'<br>

I'll be all dolled up<br>

And singin' that song<br>

That says you dog, I told you so<br>

So Horace, you will find your life a sad old story<br>

When you see your Dolly shuffle off to glory<br>

Oh I should have said so long...<br>

So Long ago!<br>

<br>
