Текст песни Steely Dan - The Goodbye Look
Steely Dan - The Goodbye Look слова песни
The surf was easy on the day I came to stay
On this quiet island in the bay
I remember a line of women all in white
The laughter and the steel bands at night
Now the Americans are gone exept for two
The embassy`s been hard to reach
There`s been talk and lately a bit of action after dark
Behind the big casino on the beach
The rules are changed
It`s not the same
It`s all new players in a whole new ball game
Last night I dreamed of an old lover dressed in gray
I`ve had this fever now since yesterday
Wake up darling they`re knocking the Colonel`s standing in the sun
With his stupid face the glasses and the gun
I know what happens
I read the book
I believe I just got the goodbye look
Won`t you pour me a Cuban breeze Gretchen
I know a fellow with a motor launch for hire
A skinny man with two-one shoes
Cause tonight they`re arranging a small reception just for me
Behind the big casino by the sea
I know what happens
I read the book
I believe I just got the goodbye look
