Lyrics

FAGIN:
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 the well but be back soon
Who can tell where danger's lurking
Do not forget this tune
Be back soon!
BOYS:
How could we forget
How could we let
Our dear old Fagin worry
We love him so we'll come back home
In oh a such a great big hurry
DODGER:
It's him who pays the piper
BOYS:
It's us that pipes his tune!
So long fare thee well, pip pip cheerio
We'll be back soon!
FAGIN:
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!
DODGER:
Our pockets hold a watch of gold
That chimes upon the hour!
SOLO BOY:
A wallet fat, an old man's hat
SOL BOY #2:
The jewels from the tower
BOYS:
We know the nosy policemen
But they don't know this tune
So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio
We'll be back soon!
FAGIN:
Cheerio but be back soon
I don't know 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 god bless you
Remember our old tune
Be back soon!
BOYS:
We must disappear, we'll be back here
Today perhaps tomorrow
We'll miss you too
FAGIN:
It's sad but true
That parting
Is such sweet sorrow!
BOYS:
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!
BOYS:
We must disappear
We'll be back here
Today perhaps tomorrow
We'll miss you too
It's sad but true
That parting is such sweet sorrow!
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!
FAGIN:
Cheerio but be back soon
I don't know 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 god bless you
Remember our old tune
Be back soon!
BOYS:
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!
OLIVER:
So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio
We'll be back soon!
BOYS:
So long fare the well, pip pip cheerio
We'll be back soon!
( whistled tune )
