Lyrics
Phone's off the hook
No one knows where we are
It's been a while since I drank champagne
The ocean's blue, as blue as your eyes
Gonna take it with me when I go
Old long since gone
And now, way back when we lived in Coney Island
Ain't no good thing ever dies
Gonna take it with me when I go
Far, far away
A train whistle blows
Wherever you're going
Wherever you've been
Waving goodbye
At the end of the day
You're up and you're over
And you're far away
Always for you
And forever yours
It felt just like the old days
We fell asleep on Beulah's porch
Gonna take it with me when I go
All broken down by the side of the road
I was never more alive, or alone
I've worn the faces off all the cards
Gonna take it with me when I go
Children are playing
At the end of the day
Strangers are singing, on our lawn
It's got to be more than flesh and bone
All that you've loved is all you own
In a land, there's a town
And in that town there's a house
And in that house there's a man
And in that man, there's a heart I love
Gonna take it with me when I go, go
Gonna take it with me when I go
Writer(s): Kathleen Brennan, Thomas Alan Waits
