Wave goodbye
Everybody waves goodbye
Climb aboard the train
Turn and wave goodbye again

Some go north, some go south
Maybe east, some left out
Some are rich, some are poor
But everybody's got to wave

Wave goodbye
We're headed for the other side
The sun shines brighter there
And everyone's got golden hair

They went north, they went south
Maybe east, some left out
Some are rich, some are poor
Someone blessed somewhat more

Because I'm sick
We're gonna find the ones that left
A boy climbs aboard the train
Never to wave bye again

They went north, they went south
Maybe east, some left out
Some are rich, some are poor
But everybody's got to wave

Don't you cry
We made it to the other side
The sun's not brighter here
It only shines on golden hair

I went north, I went south
Maybe east, some left out
Some are rich, some are poor
But everybody's got to wave
