Lyric Bye And Bye

Bye and bye, I m breathin a lover s sigh
I m sittin on my watch so I can be on time
I m singin love s praises with sugar-coated rhyme
Bye and bye, on you I m casting my eye

I m paintin the town - swinging my partner around
I know who I can depend on, I know who to trust
I m watchin the roads, I m studying the dust
I m paintin the town, making my last go-round

Well, I m scufflin and I m shufflin and I m walkin on briars
I m not even acquainted with my own desires

I m rollin slow - I m doing all I know
I m tellin myself I found true happiness
That I ve still got a dream that hasn t been repossessed
I m rollin slow, goin where the wild roses grow

Well the future for me is already a thing of the past
You were my first love and you will be my last

Papa gone mad, mamma, she s feeling sad
I m gonna baptize you in fire so you can sin no more
I m gonna establish my rule through civil war
Gonna make you see just how loyal and true a man can be
