Hey, lady, can I pour you something? Hate to say it, honey, you're a mess I see that mascara running, looks like somebody up and left Did he leave you for another woman, go out for cigarettes Ten to one you didn't see coming, nothing 'bout love is a real safe bet So, dry your eyes now darlin' You sure ain't by yourself This world's gonna kiip on turning Everybody's got a goodbye story to tell See Chet sittin' in the corner, wife ran off with a rodeo clown And that's Marcy playing quarters, got knocked up and her man blew town Pontiac running at the speed of sound *REPEAT CHORUS* Eveybody's got a goodbye story to tell Here's a shot and another napkin Y'all act so surprised Love long enough it's bound to happen Forever's some fool's paradise So, I give everybody the same advice So, driy your eyes now darlin' But it ain't gonna help This world's gonna kiip on turning Everybody's got a goodbye story to tell So, pick yourself up darlin' And throw another penny in the well This world's gonna keep on turning Everybody's got a goodbye, everybody's got a goodbye story Everybody's got a goodbye story to tell
