Lyrics

Good luck on your first job, Oliver my dear I shall be waiting for you here when you come back! You can go But be back soon You can go But while you're working This place I'm pacing round Until you're home Safe and sound Fare thee well But be back soon Who can tell Where danger's lurking? Do not forget this tune Be back soon How could we forget? How could we let Our dear old Fagin worry? We love him so We'll come back home In, oh, such a great big hurry It's him that pays the piper It's us that pipes his tune So long, fare thee well Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon You can go But be back soon You can go But bring back plenty Of pocket handkerchiefs And you should be clever thieves Whip it quick And be back soon There's a sixpence here for twenty Ain't that a lovely tune? Be back soon Our pockets'll hold A watch of gold That chimes upon the hour A wallet fat An old man's hat The crown jewels from the tower We know the Bow Street Runners But they don't know this tune So long, fare thee well Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon Cheerio, but be back soon I dunno, somehow I'll miss you I love you, that's why I Say, "Cheerio" Not goodbye Don't be gone long Be back soon Give me one long last look Bless you Remember our old tune Be back soon! And when we're in the distance You'll hear this whispered tune So long, fare thee well Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon Cheerio, but be back soon (We must disappear) I don't know, somehow I'll miss you (We'll be back here today, perhaps tomorrow) I love you, that why I (we'll miss you too) Say, "Cheerio" (it's sad but true) Not goodbye (that parting is such sweet sorrow) Don't be gone long Be back soon (and when we're in the distance) Give me one long last look (you'll hear this) Bless you (whispered tune) Remember our old tune (so long, fare the well) Be back soon! (Pip pip, cheerio, we'll be back soon) And when we're in the distance You'll hear this Whispered tune So long, fare thee well Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon So long, fare thee well Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon So long, fare thee well Pip! Pip! Cheerio! We'll be back soon So long, Fagin! Dodger (Yep) If you happen to pass the Tower of London Have a look at the crown jewels, won't you, boy? (All right. So long)
