Give me one for the highway,
Give me two for the road,
Give me Three for my baby,
That someone else done stole.
Since my baby been gone,
I just can't go on,
I'm leaving here today,
Ain't no use to stay.
Bridge: If anything happens to me,
No matter how strange it'll be,
Just make sure that I'm seen,
In my hometown, New Orleans.
Chorus: Bye, baby, bye bye,
I said, bye bye, baby, goodbye,
It hurts I understand,
That you got a fine, ol' man
Bridge: If anything happens to me,
So strange it could be,
Just make sure that I'm seen,
In my hometown, New Orleans.
Chorus: I said bye bye, baby, bye,
Oh, bye bye, baby, bye.
You know it hurts I understand,
That you lost a real fine man.
Give me two for the road,
