Good Bye Eliza Jane 1903

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 15 Sep 2004

Look a' here Liza, listen to me;
you ain't the gal you promised to be;
didn't you say you always would be true,
oo, oo, oo, oo?
You went a' driving with Mr. Browne;
now I'm the laughing stock out of town;
folks say that I was crazy to trust you.
oo, oo, oo, oo.
Throw up my hands, babe, I'se g'wine to go;
can't stand the blow; I loved you so;
I was the good thing while I had the dough,
now I must whisper low:

Goodbye Eliza Jane,
I'm g'wine a' for to leave you!
Well, you'll know, when I go,
that I was the fellow with the
dough, dough, dough;
so I'm g'wine for to sing a little song,
and travel along, just travel along;
Wish you good day, babe;
I'm on my way; Good Bye Eliza Jane.

Goodbye Eliza Jane,
I'm g'wine a' for to leave you!
Well, you'll know, when I go,
that I was the fellow with the
dough, dough, dough;
so I'm g'wine for to sing a little song,
and travel along, just travel along;
Wish you good day, babe;
I'm on my way; Good Bye Eliza Jane.

Look a' here, Liza take off those rings;
dig in that trunk, gal; hand me those things;
I'm g'wine to take the clothes I paid for, too,
oo, oo, oo, oo!
Cough up that old gold watch, and de chain;
wants that umbrella, cause it might rain;
ask Mr. Browne to fix you up all new;
oo, oo, oo, oo.
Rent time is here, babe, landlord today;
I'll be away; who's g'wine to pay?
P'raps Mr. Browne will if he's a jay,
once more to you I say:

Goodbye Eliza Jane,
I'm g'wine a' for to leave you!
Well, you'll know, when I go,
that I was the fellow with the
dough, dough, dough;
so I'm g'wine for to sing a little song,
and travel along, just travel along;
Wish you good day, babe;
I'm on my way; Good Bye Eliza Jane.

Goodbye Eliza Jane,
I'm g'wine a' for to leave you!
Well, you'll know, when I go,
that I was the fellow with the
dough, dough, dough;
so I'm g'wine for to sing a little song,
and travel along, just travel along;
Wish you good day, babe;
I'm on my way; Good Bye Eliza Jane.
