Hi Ho
[*bongo drums*]
Goodbye to the house I grew up in
The shutters are browned
And the doors painted green
The white picket fence has fallen down…
The cat won’t leave
He’s fallen asleep
Under that old, olive tree
Hi Ho, hi ho… hi ho, hi ho
Hi ho, hi ho, hi ho,
Where oh where did the time go?
The pool is cool
And the weather is bright
The flowers are pretty
Everything is giddy
Except for that dead raccoon in my sight…
Fond memories
Tainted by
A couple loose ends
From the tears we cried
But mama, I won’t forget thee no
The moonlight will shine
Where ever we go
Tears will be done
Laughter we’ll do
The important thing
Were the moments with you
Hi ho, Hi ho, hi ho, hi ho,
Hi ho, hi ho, hi ho, hi ho
Where oh where did the time go?
It’s a working world
And the dollars we spend
Is the way we grow
Inside our heads…
Hi ho, hi ho, hi ho…. hi ho…. hi ho…. hi ho, hi ho,
The time is now, and it’s ready to go…
[*fade away* hi ho’s…]
