Farewell Party

When the last breath of life

Is gone from my body

And my lips are as cold as the sea

When my friends gather 'round

For my farewell party

Won't you pretend you love me?

There'll be flowers from those

Who cry when I go

And leave you in this world alone

I know you'll have fun

At my farewell party

I know you'll be glad when I'm gone

Don't be mad at me

For wanting to keep you

'Til my life on this old world is through

You'll be free at the end

Of my farewell party

But I'll go away loving you

There'll be flowers from those

Who cry when I go

And leave you in this old world alone

I know you'll have fun

At my farewell party

I know you'll be glad when I'm gone

Oh, I know you'll be glad when I'm gone
