Expatriot |
| You can keep my bicycle, all my records and tapes |
| Might seem sentimental or sound like sour grapes |
| Sell my clothes and furniture or give 'em to the Goodwill store |
| I’m goin' overseas I’m not comin' back anymore |
| Maybe it’s a little romantic for a middle-age man like me |
| I’m gonna be an expatriate just you wait and see |
| Livin' in a Garret in Paris a House-Boat in Amsterdam |
| Smokin' a beard, growin' a pipe, doin' the best I can |
| Like Gauguin I’m a gonna go to Tahiti, wait and see |
| Find a little brown skin girl to fall in love with me |
| For years and years you’re gonna wonder just where I’ve gone |
| Maybe when I’m eighty years old I’ll come back home |
| There’ll be parades and ceremonies |
| Retrospectives too |
| And that brown skin girl will be so sad |
| I came back to you |
| You can keep my bicycle, all my records and tapes |
